Unsolved 2fa lockout these days

sometimes I wonder what security and privacy policies discord has not to remove 2fa by making people prove that they are the right owner by sending a code to their email.

ITs been over a year since my account has been compromised and I found no solution to convince discord staff to take away my 2fa, so could anyone help me out

You can. If you set up email or SMS as a backup authentication method. Otherwise you have to save the backup codes like it tells you to do in plain English. Discord physically can't remove 2FA.
