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.

Reddit is a free advertising platform. I literally just now use it to secretly advertise side hustles.

They really couldn't figure out that that first [indecipherable] is "fourth"?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 days ago (7 children)

It's pretty concise, actually.

Read that in his voice, well done.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 days ago

Sadly reasonable conclusions based on reality is pretty based.

That's what reddit banned, it's so innocuous.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 days ago

barbara streissand has taught them nothing apparently

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 days ago (1 children)

They didn't ban it because it was dangerous or violent, They banned it because the anti-corporate and spez is a musk wanna be

It's pretty shitty as far as manifestos go.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 days ago

I mean, he claims responsibility, confirmed the existing evidence, then states his motives which aren't hard to understand for even those out of the loop. I think the brevity and simple reasoning speak volumes louder than some maniacs scribblings found in a cabin. The fact that even those considered Semliterate would be able to grasp the bulk of his message was likely intentional.

Its actually not shitty at all, presuming his purpose was to inspire a shift in public discourse around the topic.

If he wanted it to be the centerpiece of a dramatic documentary miniseries, then yes, it was shitty.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I appreciate how quick a read is it. Much more likely for random people to read it and start thinking and then you can jump out of the bushes and go "surprise, you just read a manifesto!"

Depends on the context in which you're sharing it.

If you share it with a title like "We need more of this", then yeah, because you're encouraging further acts like it. If you share it with a title like "This is the manifesto written by the alleged CEO killer", then that's not inherently glorifying violence, you're just sharing something you found and being informative. But if you share it in response to the question "Hey Reddit, what are some fun things I can do in NYC this weekend?", then you're back toward the "glorifying" side. Context makes all the difference.

Whether or not anybody gives a shit about that distinction, though, is a different question.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 days ago (2 children)

My understanding is it’s being removed regardless of context.

Yes it is. So what. The rich glorifies violence against the poor.

The leader of the country once said: "When the looting starts, the shooting starts"

So if its apparantly okay to use violence against alledged thieves (which is not okay btw, stealing should never equate a death sentence), then it must be okay to use violence against mass murderer CEOs.

"When the denying starts, the deposing starts" would be my rebuttal to that phase the ex-president said. Violence begets violence.

You get points for honesty, at least. Most people in here don't even admit this is a call for violence.

No .... and stop following anything that stupid website says.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I can't believe you've done this

Is anyone with a pulse still on reedit? All I ever see there are AIO/AITA/best of creative writing exercises that reek of ChatGPT

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 days ago (1 children)

On the odd occasion I go to reddit front page, AITA is always at the top with an obviously AI generated ridiculous story.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Title: AITAH for calling out my [Friend/Husband/Wife/Mom/Dad/Son/Daughter/X-In-Law] after [He/She] did [Undeniably something outrageous that anyone with an IQ above 80 should know its unacceptable to do]?

Body of post:

[5-15 paragraph infodumping that no sane person would read]

I told my friend this and they said I'm an asshole. AITAH?

Comments:

Comment 1: NTA, you are abosolutely right, you should [Divorce/Go No-Contact/Disown/Unfriend, the person] IMMEDIATELY. Don't walk away, RUNNN!!!

Comment 2: NTA, call the police! That's totally unacceptable!

And sometimes you get someone calling out OP... 3: Wait, didn't OP also claim to be [Totally different age and gender and race] a few months ago? Heres the post: [Link]


πŸ™„ C'mon, who even think any of this is real...

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 days ago

Some communities just don't really have an equivalent elsewhere but I'm purely only lurking now. Don't comment anymore, use a modded third party client on mobile and ublock origin on desktop.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I'm there for certain communities that aren't active here. I still don't use the official client though, it's horrible

Reddit was full of false outrage and fake stories long before GPT ever existed. Just the last few people that were willing to post have kind of wandered off. I think we got the best of them here

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 days ago

I'm there for a couple of videogames and the homelab/selfhosted stuff. Curated subreddits are still active and real.
