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.

Now that we have final numbers. It appears that Harris had all the white & black support she needed for an EC victory. But Trump outright flipping Latino men and making huge gains with Latino women seems to have made all the difference.

What do you think?

I know! Let's blame EVERYBODY. That way nobody is left out and we can just admit we ALL fucked up so next time we can constructively work together to NOT fuck up instead of slinging mud at each other for the next four years.

not gonna happen. harris supporters still think genociding and massive wealth inequalities are okay. dems have lost my vote nationally until they start supporting labor and stop fucking warmongering.

Congrats on your surplus privilege! But I have some bad news for you...

[–] [email protected] -1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

You really dont. I've been expecting this for almost an entire year now. Only way to fix the dems is to toss them in the trash at this point.

Right because when something's broken you don't fix it, you just throw it away.

Good luck with the alternative.

Yes, that's what you do when the effort required to fix something is more than the effort to replace it. And only thing I need to do to replace the DNC is just let it continue doing its stupid shit and people will continue to abandon it opening the path to other options.

Will you shake your fists angrily and exclaim that "someone ought to do something" ?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

No? I'll simply continue voting for good people (when they run) and telling dweebs like yourself why their candidate is still fucking trash as usual. eventually it'll sink it. In no way is refusing to support the democratic party due to current behavior a statement about no longer being politically active.

But based on current trends looks like the DNC is probably done nationally unless they actually have a come to jesus moment as a group which based on past behavior is terribly unlikely.

[–] enbyecho 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Definitely insulting people will help. You should do it more.

I mirror the individual I'm interacting with: remember saying this?

Or the fact you walked into a conversation with me acting like I don't understand exactly whats going to happen over the next few years as a result of the democrats being completely out of touch with the voting populace and managing to lose to fucking donald trump by being unconscionably disgusting to minority groups with real fucking problems impacting their families and workers struggling to pay their bills.

You see the thing is many of you dweebs disregard is your own obnoxious behaviors in these conversations. In standard form dweebs fail to realize their social graces are trash because most people are too polite to tell them.

[–] enbyecho 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

What's funny - beyond your self-righteous arrogance - is that you seem to think you being an asshole helps you make your point.

Ha ha ha.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

the points make themselves. the rest is just for funnies. next time you want to be a arrogant ass make sure you have the chops and moral position to back it up.

[–] enbyecho 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Perhaps social media isn't for you.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Perhaps, but I'm not the one who stepped on a rake in their blind support for genocidal, anti-worker, corporate hacks because someone had the audacity to call the spade a spade.

If you want warm and fuzzies from people like me stop supporting the genocidal, anti-worker candidates and trying to tell people they're worth getting out of bed for because they'll protect your minority group of the month depending on how the wind blows.

lol, I already took the red pill ages ago. I'm just done exploring the rabbit hole, either people wake up or they dont. I'll pay just enough attention to know when i need to be there to push but otherwise meh. the DNC and its supporters are just not worth helping anymore.
