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.

It is when you have to spend money to get quality of life such as education and healthcare.
Spending taxpayer money on quality of life is something that is expected of politicians, are you implying you expect cash handouts the same way?
Thats how the pandemic stimulus checks worked.
With a specific quid pro quo nature? You really are a fucking moron you know that?
Trump specifically said everyone gets the 5k. He's a lying piece of shit who breaks laws every day but this is a bad example of that.
You’re saying there’s a reason he couldn’t just give the money now? That’s the difference. There’s no reason he wouldn’t get it passed through right now he’s just trying to buy votes.
He wont give the money out ever no matter how people vote.
EDIT: Somebody already asked him: https://www.the-independent.com/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-dividend-check-when-midterms-b3048253.html
Ok so there’s no reason he can’t just try and pass it now and he’s just trying to buy votes. Thanks for finally agreeing
You would hypothetically get the 5k no matter who you voted for. Thats how government policies work. Whoever wins makes decisions for everyone.
Idk what you're not understanding.
In the article you posted he just admitted in his own words that he won’t do it with the dems in the house. He does have final say in what gets passed in the end. He literally won’t “do it” unless they win. That means even if it was tried to be put through by dems he would spitefully veto. That’s his offer. He isn’t trying to pass 5k for people and dems are shutting it down he’s buying votes with a lie. Idk what you’re not understanding
Well, we can try it when he's indictable but he can always make the defence that he wont because he can't.
The only way this could be clearcut illegal is if he said only Republicans get the money.
