He's at 80%, not permabanned, and I would never unban a user because he's popular or has friends here, cronyism is a terrible moderation practice. 80% is 3 days total of ban.
There is no anti-racism rule. If you mean the racebait rule then that has been here since the site was made, and I copied it straight from /r/incels.
There's a difference between being racist - which you can be if you want because that enters into the realm of your personal belief system and free speech - and attacking users or racebaiting.
If you attack a user and use racism to do it, AND the user reports you (otherwise we typically assume the user doesn't mind and don't consider it bullying/harassment) then we're probably warning you. But the warning is for the attack, not for the language.
If you racebait - if you say stuff like, I don't know, "whites/blacks/X are fakecels and should gtfo of this forum and kill themselves" then that's racebaiting. It is beyond a mere belief - it is an attack on the whole % of the forum that is of that ethnicity, and it is indeed bait of the bad kind, because you can expect plenty of insults and in that thread where the mentioned party is indirectly being attacked.
Remember this forum is very ethnically diverse, more than the US in therms of percentage. In short, one can be racist and respectful at the same time.
