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
It is a universal axiom that any question starting with "Will Trump ever face consequences for..." can be answered with "no".
If, instead of prison, Trump was faced with a free luxury mansion on a private island and a $1B/yr pension to live out the rest of his years Epstein style, Kamala may have had a chance. As soon as the alternative included a hint of repercussions for his actions, the universe simply could not allow it.
Doesn't matter anyway, the spineless bitch conceded faster than John Kerry did.
Did you not listen to her concession speech?
It's a concession. I don't give a fuck what she has to say about it.
"A fundamental principle of American democracy is that when we lose an election, we accept the results. That principle, as much as any other, distinguishes democracy from monarchy or tyranny. And anyone who seeks the public trust must honor it."
Please watch her speech.
No. Fuck her. We put all our hope in to her and she utterly failed us all, even the cultists whether they're smart enough to know it or not. At this point I wouldn't piss on her if she were on fire.
I was upset when Kerry conceded, this is a whole other level. People are going to die that wouldn't have otherwise and her cowardice at calling out the bullshit tactics the extremists said flat out they'd use to secure power places that at her feet. She didn't even fucking try. Basis were burned, found in a fucking sewer. That isn't democracy.
If you can't see that you need to pay more attention.
I didn't put any hopes in her. She turned out exactly as I projected.
Fair.
Flowery words coming from someone who now lives in a tyrannic monarchy.
No, just a monarchy. As much as it pains me to say it, it's actually not "tyrannic" because the electorate legitimately voted for it.
I almost wish Trump had actually lost and then stolen power. At least that would've made some sort of sense!
Not "tyrannic" yet, but Project 2025 is 3 months away.
Preach. Fuck Kamela. She's just as responsible for the death of democracy as everyone who voted Trump, voted 3rd Party, or didn't vote at all. She's willing to just throw in the towel and let the country (and millions of Americans living in it) die. So fuck her.
What do you want her to do?
I really don't like her but what the fuck did you want exactly? A coup?
Please, she's not that cool.
I want elections where the far right doesn't get to say "we won" after detailing dozens of illegal things they'd do to secure the election while everyone else who is supposed to be in charge is just like "oh OK". It's not an unreasonable ask.
Just came to say you're a coward and an idiot. If you want change, run for elections or lead a direct action movement instead of insulting people actually trying. What bad logic are using to insult the person who ran and lost instead of the person who won and who is threatening to make everyone's lives worse? again coward and an idiot
