It was. To the best of my understanding, it was decided that people are people, and say stuff, so skin color was irrelevant.

But people of certain skin colors often live in certain cultural spheres, which have particular norms, which are often interesting and funny to observe. Hence why ScottishPeopleTwitter was always equally valid.

I'm not a mod, hence "to the best of my understanding." I doubt they want to relitigate but feel free to do you.
