It's still there today.

There's some stuff in the App Store Review Guidelines [link] you can cite in complaints.

Section 14.1 (Personal Attacks) says Any app that is defamatory, offensive, mean-spirited, or likely to place the targeted individual or group in harms way will be rejected.

Section 16.1 (Objectionable Content) says Apps that present excessively objectionable or crude content will be rejected.

Section 19.1 (Religion, culture, and ethnicity) says Apps containing references or commentary about a religious, cultural or ethnic group that are defamatory, offensive, mean-spirited or likely to expose the targeted group to harm or violence will be rejected.

Also, Apple has a Diversity Policy, which includes the statement As an Apple employee you are expected to be respectful of the diverse backgrounds of all employees, temporary agency workers, independent contractors, customers, clients and vendors. Approving this this for sale app doesn't seem to be in line with this policy.

I've been relying particular on 14.1, but I'll elevate this to the addenda post, thanks. Don't forget to tell others.
