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.

I assume the MOMENT he saw it was going to be Kamala, he KNEW he lost the black vote. And he's right. I knew people in 2008 who said "Obama the president now! He's one of us! So white peoples time is over! It's our time now!"
When I asked them what they expected to happen differently, they simply said it didn't matter, because one of their own was in the white house. When I asked what policies Obama's lined up with their own opinions, they didn't know ANY of his policies.
They voted for him simply because he was black. That's as far as some people's voting logic goes.
Now, today, I expect much of the same. Especially when you look at the republicans and realize that trump may honestly be the worst thing for black people since reagan.
So regardless of if they're voting for the right reasons, at least they're voting for the right person. And if she wins, I cannot wait for the absolute ego shattering meltdown trump will have. I fully expect him to cry.
My worry is, even though he may know he'll lose, he's still pushing through to be able to claim for a third time that the election is rigged, and that his supporters should do a better jan6 than last time.
I think that's a well established worry at this point
Are you sure?
