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. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

MODERATORS
I believe in you though
I believe your faith is misplaced but I appreciate your kind words all the same
Trust me. It's not. Don't ask me how I know. I just know. ;)
Every time someone catches covid they lose 1 IQ point on average. Since (unless you're vaccinated) you don't really become immune anymore, you're likely to lose several IQ points a year. QED.
(That said, things were already going downhill before The Great Lurgy).
wtf i caught it like 10 times. how come scrience bitches can't make me more smarter?
Unchecked corruption and endless media propaganda leading to runaway regulatory capture resulting in an untenable concentration of wealth and power into far too few individuals and organizations.
Edit: also, donkey brains 🫏 🧠

It all ended w hanging chads
Been watching the train wreck since
what are hanging chads? some kind of new halloween decoration?
It was how Bush stole the 2000 elections from Al Gore and set the stage for the fascist takeover of the US, backed by the Supreme Court.
It’s been series of cascading failures since then. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bush_v._Gore
Our society and the environment have been held hostage ever since.
It was an issue with older ballot styles. In Florida, during the 2000 election, they were using ballots where you would use a hole punch to choose who you voted for. Sometimes, the hole punch did not fully cut the paper and the little bit (the chad) would still be attached. It could then cover up the hole, or cover a different one, so when the machine would read it, it could register as a different vote.
oh snap that sounds highly concerning
The answer as always is capitalism. Literally every terrible thing happening can be linked back to the desire for profit.

It's above my pay-grade.
This is my favorite answer. Thank you.
Greed and stupidity.
Like... the current state of affairs everywhere? Cause I'm not sure I can take ownership of EVERYTHING.
but buddha says we're one with everything so technically this is your fault.
That was probably true back in olden times when Buddha was writing his college thesis on that, but there's at least like 30 different people today and I'm not one of them.
idk 30 sounds like a lot
There are some people in there that actually aren't that different. Shawn vs Sean sort of thing. Probably closer to 20 people in 2014, crypto/AI/politics really gummed things up.
My excuse is I shouldn't be alive anyway
The more of your comments I read the more convinced I am that you are me
I wouldn't want to curse anyone with that
I wouldn't either but I think it just happens sometimes. If you are me and nobody has told you yet, good going for not getting anyone preggers. This all could have been worse
I mean... that is indeed true
Why would I need excuses? I've been trying to stop this for 20 years. Political movements, organizing, writing and sharing useful information. I don't need excuses. If you want an explanation, I can give you my perspective, but I don't regret not doing more. I did as much as I could and paid dearly for it.

I'm preoccupied with my health and I don't feel like I have a lot of agency to accomplish much. That's slowly changing, maybe.
