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

How would a user of an internet forum exhibit discrimination?
5.0.1: Before using the website, remember you will be interacting with actual, real people and communities. Lemmy.World is not a place for you to attack other groups of people. Every one of our users has a right to browse and interact with the website and all of its contents free of treatment such as harassment, bullying, violation of privacy or threats of violence.
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!

HEAR HERE! (I DON’T KNOW WHICH ONE TO USE WHEN SHOUTING THIS EXPRESSION IN SUPPORT OF WHAT YOU ARE SAYING)

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”.
