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. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

I concur. Don't listen to internet keyboard warriors.
do it your way. tell me how 2000 thousand wrongfull conviction on nearly 300 year give you exclusive right ?
I don't think I can.
well if you wanna prouve me right the best way is to assault law enforcement and that the justice say it was justified. Idk how you wanna dot it but tell me if you do
No, it's not that. You're definitely wrong. Slaves being bought, sold and abused were complying with the law, and that did not work out for them. People of Japanese ancestry were complying with the law when they were moved into concentration camps during WWII, and that was not okay. Just complying with the law is not going to protect you from harm. To add to this, black people had to fight against the law for almost a century in order to get recognized as equal to white people. Women had to protest and non-comply with the law in order to get recognized as equal to men. So active non-compliance is practically a requirement for things to change for legally marginalized people.
The real problem with explaining it all is that every time I see someone going hard to defend the absolute dumbest, room-temp IQ, stance on a situation, it's usually you, or like 3 other people. I don't even have to read your name to know a post belongs to you, the absolutely backwards crap you post has it's own very unique style that lasts substance or tact. I don't think you could be convinced that you are wrong, despite the preponderance of evidence that you couldn't be further from the truth.
