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.

The chances of me personally firebombing anything is functionally 0.

I certianly expect someone else to handle this for me, the men and women of the US military who aren't going to a US city into fucking Dresden.

My suggestion was to rely on the mechanism which has handled this type of issue without fail since day one.

Yours is to encite random acts of partisan violence.

I'm going stick with my plan thanks.

We're already in the state of partisan violence. just take a look at the news. ๐Ÿคฆ excuse me mr gestapo please dont arrest my friends and family. lol.

god you people would rather sit on your asses than do anything effective to stop this nonsense. Trump is already denying aid to states he doesnt like, arresting legal residents on trumped up charges. about the only thing he isnt doing is shooting people personally.

so what will it take for you to actually lift a fucking finger? your family members being shot in the streets by ICE? random acts of directed violence is precisely what is needed atm. but keep on hand wringing. I'm sure that will be effective!

Not wringing my hands, in fact I never stated whether I was actually against Trump bombing cities, I just answered what was stopping him.

That was the question, and the answer is still the same.

As far as my lifting a finger? Well, short of the usual civic duties like voting and such, I'm not getting involved.
