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.

I mean he’s accused of premeditated murder, has the resources to flee, and I’m pretty sure “they” want a spectacle to make an example.

they wont let him get shanked by accident, and they wont Epstein him until they have their spectacle

Dude probably gets a standing ovation every time he enters a room.

Why are people generally in prison? Usually because they’re violent, drug addicted or at odds with the status quo.

Luigi is in prison accused of killing a man responsible for getting people hooked on drugs, marginalizing the already marginalized and poor, and ruining the lives of millions.

I think the inmates would be more likely to treat him like a hero.

I don't think it's the inmates OP is worried about.

The guards and administration want him alive.

People like Epstein die in prison because showing up in court runs the risk of taking down powerful people. People like Luigi always have their day to be dragged through the mud in court before they rot away forever in jail, with random reminders that they’re still alive and suffering.

They would absolutely not allow him to die in prison.

They want to make a public example of him in order to show the proletariat they are the masters.

They will find a way to find him guilty and they will execute him.

They will make sure we all know it.

They did it to Joe Hill.

Well I mean what are you going to do? He's in jail, accused of a crime. The government has him on a valid warrant.

Even if you wanted to break him out, he's here:

Good fucking luck.

There's simply nothing to do but wait for his case.

True. I think even if he gets off, they’ll kill him. Remember all the whistleblower deaths in 2024? Like that.

Epstein ring a bell?

How do you know that to be true? What evidence do you have to support the hypothesis?

Even if the outcome you fear to be true comes to pass, that will not mean you were correct today.

Without evidence to support the hypothesis, you're doing nothing more complicated than guessing the result of flipping a coin.
