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.

Dumb fucks who fall for propaganda on every platform.

I'm a native whose culture have hunted and eaten meat for millennia, what propaganda were my ancient ancestors being shown?

[–] Leviathan 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

What does what your ancestors did have to do with what we now know about modern factory farming? The question was about still eating beef despite what we know today, what does that have to do with your ancestors? Is your comment not the very definition of a strawman?

Who are you to come to my continent, judge me and tell me my culture is wrong?

The future will absolutely not look down on cultures that have to rely on animals for food. Do we look at native Americans as horrible people because they had to slaughter animals, in a controlled, and relatively well thought out manner?

Personally I believe the most likely alternative will be bugs. Do bugs not count as an animal? Or would you say bugs shouldn't be eaten either

They would drive animals off cliffs. That would cause horror if they were to repeat it today yes. Just stop eating living animals it's that simple, but if you want to eat bugs, knock yourself out.

I think we'll find "plagues" of species more common and end up harvesting as many as possible then so that "locust" is the primary protein source for that year.

Its not that simple. I can see why you believe it is, and it probably helps contribute to why you have little empathy even for those who show you they physically cant.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Why, explain, why the next time you go shopping you NEED to buy animal products?

You talk about my lack of empathy? jokes are flowing tonight. I noticed you didn't deny the chicken allegations ;)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

What chicken allegations? Are you high or something?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

Lol replied to the wrong person. A lil.

Anyway ignore that bit. Why do you need to buy animal products? There are alternatives.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Soon to be alternatives, which I'm all for. I was only pointing it out that it isn't exactly plausible for everyone, and arguing with someone who can't is not worth their time, or yours.
