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.

Yeah, I mean YOU to mean all the people who hear what we need to do, and just immediately surrender with a resigned sigh that it will never happen. And it won't, unless we MAKE it happen.

I get your situation, I live in Central Florida, the last Democratic stronghold in the state, which is under direct attack by MAGAs. Over the next few years, they are planning to build an entirely NEW city from scratch, between Orlando and the East Coast, that will be as large as Orlando, which will greatly reduce the Democratic

How do you start a conservative city from scratch? You allow the Mormon Church to buy thousand of acres of land, including protected conservation land, and then let them build a city dedicated to their church, so they can have a West Coast capital, and an East Coast Capital.

Central Florida is about to be invaded by some of the most gullible religious weirdos on the planet.

It's surprising how many states are actually fairly evenly split, but the Right has convinced people that their vote is powerless, so they don't bother. If all those Democrats came out to vote, a few Red states would have some surprise flips. This would be a great election to do that, since the MAGAs are so depressed, many will be voting Dem, and many won't vote at all. The Dems could really crush them, and I'd love to see the MAGAs cry when they get bloodbathed even worse than they expected..
