They've always banned for "admitting to" things like copyright infringement or being attracted sexually to children, it's the admitting to it part that harms the forum. You're supposed to keep it secret or on the Discords not say it out loud on the forums. As for the other things, people can't change, they can't learn or admit their errors. So it's protecting the forum to remove those people rather than let them stay and be bigots. Your ways would just open the doors to more bigots claiming they're JAQ and not sealioning.
