I'm pretty sure the ToS only exists for legal reasons, don't make a big deal out of this. It doesn't mean the admins won't ban people for discrimination. Nothing suggests their stance has changed.
- It's always the same trolls. Who would read the ToS and say "ok guess racism is back on the table".
- Then why the change?
  
  Nothing was changed, it's a new document.
  
  That is a change
- If it’s not a big deal then it shouldn’t be too hard to mention you can’t discriminate against someone’s religion/race/gender/etc.
  
  These things are a big enough deal they need to be removed but suddenly “it’s not a big deal” when people want them back.
  
  A) They weren't removed, this is a new document
  
  B) As other comments mention, discrimination and harassment is covered in section 5
  
  C) Consider messaging the admins about it rather than push the alert button and causing needless drama
  
  It’s not covered in section 5. Go read it.
- How would a user of an internet forum exhibit discrimination?
