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.

I thought for sure this was about Trump.
Isn't everything?
In his mind, yeah.
Trump raped E. Jean Carol.
No they didn't.
It did not say it's not rape. Rape is a criminal term to be used in criminal court. Sexual Assault is the civil court term for rape. He was not punished, he was sued.
What college did you go to kiddo? You seem real dim.
No part of that says he did not do it, which is your claim. Are you illiterate?
That does not mean he didn't do it. You need a brush up on your 3rd grade reading comprehension.
He raped her, therefore he is a rapist. What are you not getting here
Yes we do. He raped her. He is a rapist. OJ is a killer and trump is a rapist. Escaping justice does not mean you didn't do it.
Lol according the presiding judge, Donald Trump is a certified rapist: https://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-rape-e-jean-carroll-sexual-abuse-jury-judge-2023-7?op=1
THIS.
All the rest of this conversation is pedantic nonsense (on both sides, I might add).
It's like if the law decided that only fire brick red as defined by this website is red : https://html-color.codes/red
And then someone on lemmy said "the court said your car isn't red". And then we'd have to spend a half hour and an incredibly long post to explain how courts sometimes use different definitions for words that people use in normal conversation, and to be careful how you interpret that.
Bottom line is Trump did what everyone else is calling rape.
That is false. Again. You keep saying the same thing and you keep being wrong. Not proving he's a rapist does not means he not one. Please go back you school you complete dunce.
False. Again. Being unable to prove something true does not make that thing false. The ONLY reason it can't be proven true is because of how long ago he did it.
The Court was required to use softer language because the violent sex crime he committed and is unapologetic about was committed in the 90s.
There's a statue of limitations that prevents him from being criminally charged. But as part of a defamation case a jury found that there was sufficient evidence to determine that Trump knowingly and intentionally lied when he said he didn't rape her.
Which is to say - a jury unanimously ruled that he committed the act that would be would otherwise be called rape, but because of a legal technicality can't be. Not everyone on that Jury was a liberal, woke Democrat. There were Republicans that heard testimony and saw evidence and determined that he forced a woman to have sex against her will.
He did it. The he got successfully sued again for lying about it more and lashing out against his victim.
In every way that matters when evaluating someone's character, he's an unrepentant, vengeful rapist.
Right, how do you think he sexually assaulted her 30 years ago? They didn't have the evidence to support full blown penetrative rape because any fluids or internal damage to her body would have long been healed over or ejected. The SA liability came with an $83.3M price tag. Do you get slapped with a punishment like that for grabbing a boob?
You could win this argument if only you could link a reference to your sources. It's not up to us to look up evidence for your claims, it's up to you to provide evidence for your argument.
