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.

Nobody is under attack.
There's some bigots, but what rights are under attack?
Not literally. Just because I recognize a man is a man, doesn't mean I literally want to kill them.
How? How would you fight for them? What rights do they not have that an average person has?
You don't fight for all kids, or you'd be protesting abortions.
Nope, I fight for kids that aren’t ready to be a parent, kids that do not want to deliver their abusers children. Being pro-life is defending a possibility over an actual sentient person.
Plenty of people are waiting to adopt a baby, the 'kids' (who are often mid 20's-mid 30's) who don't want to have the responsibility of raising the child they chose to bring into the world, don't need to. There are lines of people wanting to adopt.
Can you expand on this?
Defending the rights of a baby that can't fight for themselves*
We are defined by fighting for those who aren't strong enough to fight for themselves.
It’s a blob of cells not a baby. I guess if I thought souls were real I could see where you’re coming from. And there are lines of people to adopt healthy Caucasian babies, sure but in reality many kids spend life in the system.
I disagree.
I don't see it as a 'soul' - just a human life that deserves some sort of right to life.
Do you have data that shows that caucasian babies are being adopted but brown babies aren't?
What rights? Well for example the right to get the medical care you need. The right to take a goddamn piss in a public toilet. The right to participate in society as you are, rather than a how some fascist demagogue has determined you should be.
"Need" - define need? Is a sex change for a 13 year old a necessity? If a girl wants boob implants at age 13, that's not necessary.
You forcing anybody into a specific restroom despite protests from the majority doesn't make you right. Women should use the women's restroom, guys should use the guys restroom. I have advocated for penis room vs vagina room, though.
No, you want it as they 'identify.' Just because someone thinks they are something else, doesn't mean they are that thing. I used to be called 'doggy boy' because I liked digging holes. I wasn't literally a dog.
Fascist demagogue = nature? I get you may have an issue with mother nature, but that's your fight, don't force everyone to abide by your unpopular view of the world.
