The implication is that Discord can surveil you (or help a government surveil you), not that your chats will be leaked to the world directly. Discord "servers" are just instances of Discord on Discord Inc's cloud. Discord never claims that they are private in the sense of 'sovereign', only that you can moderate them yourself. Discord openly states in the TOS that their "Trust and Safety" team can see literally everything you do (channel messages, DMs, attachments, etc) at any time.
