No Stupid Questions
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.

~~Do you think that these CBS employees should~~ unionize ~~and go on strike~~?
Yes. The answer is always yes.
The moment I get inconvenienced and hear its about a strike. I never blame the workers and my annoyance is halved.
I disagree, the annoyance should be doubled, but directed to those in charge of the workers who treated them bad enough to want to strike.
Of course what I mean is with the people I'm dealing with. For example airline flight crew goes on strike. The guy at the ticket counter is not the one that did it. But I would blow up the executives in a heart beat.
Not if we're talking about cops.
They should go on strike and stay on strike that's fine actually
Didn't the NYPD do that once and crime went down?
It was more of a slowdown actually, or I suppose more accurately a direct attempt at the "give the people what they are asking for and show them why they won't like it".
In short, the police continued to investigate major crimes. But focus less on trying to catch people in small crimes etc... IE stop and frisk kind of nonsense etc... expecting to come out of it saying "see now look how many major crimes happened because we didn't nip things in the bud", and it ended basically with major crime going down, and people being happier with the police.

None of the issues with police in America would be fixed by taking away their unions. Nor do any of the fixes require doing so.
ACAB, but even class-betraying bastards are workers who deserve a collective voice in how they are managed.
