      Yes but what about jewish black lesbians? They are cool to harass right? It’s not literally explained in the document so it must be!

    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”.

        Nothing was changed, it’s a new document.

      How would a user of an internet forum exhibit discrimination?

    Rule 5 covers discrimination.

    Here’s a link to the terms of service.

    Frankly it sounds a lot like pseudo-legalese. IMO the worst of both legalese (that could shield the entity legally) and writing clearly (that could inform users). However it doesn’t imply that discrimination is allowed here, and 5.0.1 (“Lemmy.World is not a place for you to attack other groups of people.”) already arguably protects people against discrimination.

      It’s a hell of a lot clearer too. “Discriminate” is more vague than “attack”.
