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.

Umm... Everything? How many attempts are you aware of where the secret service keeps the president elect on the stage during an active shooting? How many are you aware of where the SS ushers in photographers to take the heroic photos? How many are there where a crane lowers the flag down behind him for the aforementioned heroic photos, again while the shooter is still active?
It's the worst botch of a false flag event I'm aware of.

The bullet that grazed Trump's ear has been analyzed to death as too close to be fatal from the gunman's distance to reliably stage. There are numerous more plausible explanations than the one the video puts forward.
This is the sort of information I was looking for, thanks. Hadn’t heard about any of this stuff before. I don’t know enough to make a judgment yet but I wanted to hear where people were coming from
Edit: wait this video is from a previous assassination attempt, I’m talking about the most recent one at the WH correspondence dinner
Their point is that the dinner attempt is just another poorly executed staged attempt for publicity and sympathy from a wannabe dictator that's losing support extremely quickly.
He started a war with Iran to distract from the Epstein files. That is so clearly obvious that even MAGA informed have been turning against him.
This reeks of a blatant attempt to artificially increase support like many two bit dictators have done on the past. It worked last time.
not only that but the IRAN war is dragging on so long and badly for the US forces in the ME region too, already got soldiers killed early on,.
with 3 attempts so far, its more than a coincidence, of course right wing MSM, and fox arnt going to label like this way.
~~so, you were looking for conspiracy bs...?~~
My question was why people believe this. He told me why he believes it. So that was the information I was looking for. That doesn’t necessarily mean that I think the conspiracy stuff is convincing
ok, that is fair point i completely missed...
He wasn't president elect at that time. He would have been "former president, and likely (but as of the day of shooting unconfirmed) 2024 republican presidental nominee".
The attack happened in the summer of 2024. Election in November 2024.
