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.

So if a strong DEM came out with Fire and Brimstone even locally and took a smart ass approach but could quote off facts and figures the top of his head. And pretty much showed no respect to the right only to ridicule them? On ignorance or biggotry were just like fuck it and did not play by the so called "rules" the republicans did. They should be able to Trample the shit out of any Republican? Oh and hit them on small shit like piracy and copyright infringement and why they are fixing to come up with a comeback the train left that station and is now ten miles down the road?
they had that twice, and censured one of em. They tried to stop the other one but the people of New York did the right thing
The thing about that is the main Democrat establishment hates that type of candidate and tolerates Republicans by comparison, so in such a race, the Democrat party actively sabotages the leftist candidates. That's why Bernie runs as an independent - the Democrat party would not support him and actively sabotaged his attempt to run for president in 2016. The Democrat party also attempted to sabotage Mamdani's run for mayor of NYC, but they were unable to stop him from winning anyways, despite their opposition. So, maybe the dam is starting to crack and we will see more cases like that. The party will fight it tooth and nail the whole way, though. They would much rather have Republicans in power than leftists.
