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.

MODERATORS
 

I originally signed up for lemmy about six months ago due to becoming outraged over reddit's continual coddling of hard right and fascist powermods that use their authority to harass.

It was good here at lemmy.world for a long while until I started getting harassed by a 12 day old right leaning mod in /politics.

I posted a thread here about what to do and even got back a response from the site operator.

Which was shortly followed by a PM my thekingoflorida (the site operator) scolding me and threatening action for calling out the mods bad behavior in threads.

Reading the wind I realized lemmy.world is heading down the shitshow path that so many other online social forums have become and immediately deleted my account.

@thekingoflorida I do not want you to respond, I don't care about your opinion, and if the fucking software would let me block you, I would have already.

So in short, I'm looking for a lemmy instance that has zero right wing users with admins that actually want to keep right wing forum manipulation off of their platform. I don't care about 'the marketplace of ideas' or fairness in speech that tries to give space to fascist rhetoric in the guise of equality.

EVERY time they worm their ways in and have admin support, it ALWAYS railroads into what ruined reddit. And I'm tired of these shitstains ruining communities that I enjoy.

So, TL;DR: I'm looking for a lemmy instance with ZERO tolerance for anything right of Bill Clinton.

people like you are the reason I left reddit

No, people like the mods you mentioned are why. I didn't do shit but make a crappy joke to someone else. But you're clearly scanning your own post for more comments to try to argue why you're right and we're wrong. You were even given honest and well intentioned replies which you replied to by being a jerk as if everyone else in this discussion scoured the comments before making the suggestion. People like you are why you left Reddit. You are bitching about people doing what you're doing, you just want to be the one to do it with no objections.

Considering I thanked the two people that offered actual suggestions, and everyone else is just meming and joking, your reply is largely just you mentally masturbating.

I've seen this pattern so many times before that it is pretty clear where your position and ideology lies.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago (2 children)

My original comment was a joke you dunce. And it wasn't even to you but you managed to "mentally masturbate" to your own post to the point you're arguing with people who never engaged you to begin with.

He obviously doesn't take anything that isn't immediate agreement with everything he has to say in any context well.

I have a hunch that he may start calling you a russian bot soon, based on the timing of the tantrum he's throwing about moderation.
