No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

People are storming the streets and town halls, Elon is dissolving the whole country and Trump is busy tending Putin's toes. Where the fuck are the democrats in all this crisis? It feels AOC is doing all the heavylifting while all the rest of them smug bunch are just watching with "told ya dis was gunn happen" drawn on their face.

Nothing of consequence, nobody is.

Yeah, here and there some may say that ooohh, trump bad!

He just beheaded the military which is literally the pre-last step needed. All he needs to do now is put trump loyalists in those positions, have them purge the rest of the top to ensure all are pro trump and them what's going to stop him?

AOC? She'll mysteriously disappear, next question.

Who is going to stop these fuckwads?

Next up, Canada will become the 51st state. Don't wanna? Nuke Vancouver, who is going to stop him? What, Europe? They can get a few nukes too if they don't like it, he has enough.

Next up, Panama becomes a US state. Don't like it? See a pattern?

Next up, Greenland, and so on.

NOBODY HAS DONE ANYTHING. The US is always ALWAYS boasting about self sacrifice and the one hero who saves all, or maybe a group that bands together and goes against all odds and die in the process and and and... Nothing. So far the biggest actions I've seen were people resigning in protest, making even easier for trump WTF.

Ooohh, ther ehave been protests! Some cities had dozens of people, some even had hundreds!! Whooooo, Cheeto must be shitting bricks now!!

Nobody has done anything.

These are people whondobt care about laws

These are people that don't care about consequences, nor do they have the ability to think about consequences

These are people who don't care if you, or millions like you will die. Fuck you, die already, give us what we want.

In part, these are people who are working diligently to bring about the apocalypse so that jeebus christ will return or some delusional shit like that, and now they have access to nukes. Great going assholes (yes, if you're American, that means you) YOU DIDNT DO ANYTHING TO FUCKING STOP ANY OF THIS.

Oh, what? You think that you did your job by voting? Well that sure wasn't enough. These fuckers will fuck the world, when is someone going to do something to actually stop all of this shit?

Honestly, I don't think anyone can do anything anymore anyway. Something could have been done by Biden. He had the extraordinary presidential powers, he could have simply stopped trump by pulling a trump. He refused, needed to do "the right thing" and fuck the world over in the process. Well done, asshole, hope you feel good about yourself.

I think we're all fucked. I used to worry about climate change as I have a reasonable understanding of what it takes to stop it, let alone start to reverse it. It will take a huge effort and sacrifice from everyone in the world and we've done shit all and don't care. Don't worry if you live through trump (there is a good non zero chance that you won't), climate change will end you.

Now I'm just worried about the world being destroyed beyond repair by trump already because again, nobody cares to actually stop all of them.

I'm kind of in the zone where I kust let it happen , once they come for me, I'll be happy with my wife, we had an awesome run together, when we die, we will be happy in eachothers arms.

Luigi did something. We need more Luigis, but I fear we will get peasant-brain brown shirts instead
