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.

Oh gross are you just an antisemite?

Israel as a nation is the problem, not jews bud. Get a life

People like you are the reason israel is going to win, and I weep for your palestinian victims

No, I am not. I have not said anything antisemitic, and will not.

Israel as a nation is the problem, not jews bud. Get a life.

I agree that settler-colonialism, as represented by Zionism, is the problem. Judaism is not synonymous with the zionist project.

I'm happy to see that we've wound down your arguments to where you're grasping at straws and making up things to argue against.

People like you are the reason israel is going to win,

We'll see.

Zionist has been an antisemetic buzz word for almost a century, bud, but it does explain why you were so happy to see the music festival victims.

And why you seem so keen on hamas, despite their recent announcements of goals which include a racial jewish clensing.

Sucks that you are using palestine as an excuse for your garbage. Normal folk are upset at civilian death.

I agree with most of what you've said, but just throwing in my 2 cents that I've never heard Zionist as an antisemitic buzz word, I've only ever understood it to as a way to differentiate Jews who support the Israeli and it's settler colonialism project, and those who don't. Maybe antisemitic use it, but I don't think it's a common dog whistle (like globalist is, for example).
