No Stupid Questions
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.

Why make it about race?
In case someone reading had a similar question but about race. Why do you care, do people of different races bother you?
Ah, you're a troll. Got it
I love it when I say what I think and people don't have a real response so they just call me a troll, lol.
That's fine, block me so I don't have to deal with you anymore, I'm cool with that.
On the very unlikely chance you're being genuine, which I don't think you are, there's a great quote you should consider.
"If you meet one asshole, then they're an asshole. If everyone you meet is an asshole, you're the asshole."
Not everyone I meet treats me the way people on Lemmy treat me. I am told I am a kind person and most people, while apathetic, are not so rude as Lemmy users. It's a great quote, but ultimately not applicable to this particular situation. Have a good day, or not, make of it however you will.
Perhaps you present yourself on Lemmy in an inflammatory way which you do not IRL?
Lemmy is 1000x more toxic than reddit ever was. Reddit had so many users that insane takes were downvoted and those people burried. Lemmy was made by insane people.
No way lol. Have you blocked .ml yet?
Nah, Lemmy users are just mean, worse than Redditors. Add in internet anonymity and you get users that just dont care about other people, even going out of their way to harass or try to fight by writing comments like they're trying to catch someone in a trap they think is clever.
Thankfully I can block entire instances so I dont have to deal with most of them. Its just a shame, because Lemmy was supposed to be better than Reddit, but I am seeing more that its almost worse. The only reason I even still use Lemmy is because I don't like the Reddit mobile app. That's literally it.
I definitely dont stay here for the users.
That's wild man, my experience has been quite the opposite. I hope you find the users I'm seeing in my feed.
