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.

3 while your heart is in the right place would cause so much harm to innocent people that frankly you might as well just fucking start beating people with a bat at random. You would do less harm.
5m is NOT a lot of money depending on how you cut it. Hell my family has roughly 6.3 million because of the house we all live in and have lived in for 100 years. Because it was built by my great grandfather and maintained and expanded by every generation.
Most of my family is currently loving pay check to pay check. And the rest only barely better then that. Taking away private property just based on a random amount of money owned is unreason, fucked up, and WILL get people killed due to how hard that can and will destabilize entire families.
4 is flat out retarded. Every country on fucking earth has a international division of their government. Your actively a dipshit that understands nothing if you think that's remotely a reasonable let alone even a good idea.
Better oversight? Sure, disband? Actually a bleach drinking take.
For sure everyone in that list should get mandatory 5 years for just being on the list. More if there's other instances.
For sure, lobbyists need to be gone period.
I don't honestly think you could rewrite the Constitution and have it be impartial in the slightest. Maybe if you pulled 100+ random Americans and put them in a room for a year with no outside contact. There's no politician that isn't bought already that should do it.
I know it'll never happen, but I'd like to add 7. All presidents will be forced to live at the poverty level after their term is over for the rest of their life. No rich friends, no stocks or businesses.
We'd get UBI real quick after that.
All politicians and supreme court judges, not just presidents ideally.
