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. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

What came before that:

  • Several members of the US SC have been compromised (Brett Kavanaugh, Clarence Thomas, and possibly others) by having been photographed/filmed at sexually explicit events with minors.
  • In the case of Kavanaugh this was even dangled in front of his eyes at his confirmation hearing to make sure he understood he was to walk the line or else.
  • Cases were brought in front of the SC to make sure they could rule on “Presidential immunity”
  • Even though this empowered Joe Biden to unprecedented levels of presidential impunity, he choose to do nothing with it and let the the his AG continue his slow work on trying get anything to stick on Trump, or attempt to push.
  • Under Obama II, Mitch McConnell succeeded in preventing liberal justices to be confirmed in the Senate, leaving a notorious psychopath/narcissistic sociopath to fill 3 conservative justices in a single term, despite being one of the least popular presidents of all time.

I still rage thinking about this...

Obama: Scalia dies in the beginning of the election year and Mitch McFuck says "it's too close to the election, we need to let the people decide."

Trump: Ginsberg dies WHILE MAIL IN VOTING IS HAPPENING and Mitch McFuck rams through a nomination...

God I hate that piece of shit.

And then your party appointed an attorney general who did absolutely nothing.

It's "my party" as in: I hold my nose, disgusted at the fact they're the only viable option until we change the voting system, but am fully aware they're 90% shit and do dumbass fucking things like "make the same person Republicans wanted as a justice be an attorney general responsible for holding Trump accountable."

Doesn't change the fact that Mitch McFuck is a piece of shit that has no standards other than "whatever gets me more power."
