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
People who would ever consider voting for the Toupee have no standards. No bar, no logic or even thought goes in to who they vote for.
The people who are planning to vote against the Toupee have standards. And the Democratic party has continually failed to meet those standards. And the only time the people have any power to pressure a politician is when they're running for office. Anyone claiming "just vote in the D, then we can focus on getting progress made" is a centrist who is ok being perpetually part of the oppressed class.
Yes, we need to vote against the Toupee, and the GOP in general. We also need a presidential administration who will get progress done. And since the human species has, at best, 30 years left before the majority of the world is uninhabitable, little baby steps won't cut it.
So Harris and the Dems have a high bar. Because the alternative is fascism, or death by climate change.
Well if that isn't just the dumbest thing I've ever read.
That would add up if you thought people should choose fascism or death from climate change over some sense of chance.
We need to make larger demands, but voting for those options you listed shouldn't be 50/50 as the post is questioning.
Your entire comment is written like Biden and Harris are not currently complicit in Genocide.
Okay do what are you doing to further your goals to stop the genocide?
Scream at everyone on a small niche internet forum who says anything about politics without mentioning the thing everybody already knows about
That assumes this poster has a goal to stop the genocide. ;)
Yeah, the vast majority of the "genocide" screamers are Trump supporters trying to demotivate left leaning folks from voting Democratic.
Making people aware it is only happning because of Biden and Harris.
This poster doesn't care one whit about the plight of Palestinians. It has but one goal -- to be the nerdy girl that helps peel votes off the votes from the nerdy guy so her friend, the jerkish cheerleader favoured by the Jocks, can win the SGA election 49 to 48 to 3 (I've posted this example of how government works in First Past the Post if you'd like to understand what I mean by nerd girl and cheerleader in SGA). The purpose of this poster and others like it is to throw the election to Trump so we're subjected to Project 2025, which incidentally aligns with Putin's and Xi's goals.
Please think carefully before you listen to this poster or any other like it.
"The only people who care about Genocide are those who vote in favor of it"
Thanks for the comment definitely not alt account that came out of retirement but acts like an active poster.
Linkerbaan, you have always been, and always will be, a Trump supporter masquerading as a leftwinger. You are here for one purpose only: to stop leftwing folks from voting.
Edit: for the record, the reply, which for some reason I can no longer see, said simply "cope".
