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.

Brain drain. It’s already started. Academics, scientists, and researchers are moving to Canada or Europe to do their work. As shit gets worse, the upper and middle classes will start to do the same. The underprivileged and undereducated will fight for the scraps of what’s left.

So I actually just kinda answered this as a "joke" in another thread, but essentially:

The future: fascists, racist robots, billionaires, more fascists, bombing civilians, cutting science funding, the earth is on fire, more fascists, cutting HIV study funding, more racist robots, gutting artistic employment, more billionaires, fried donuts.

Oh boy donuts

If your curious what the right is pushing for go ahead and check out The Turner Diaries.

If you actually finish the book, wait for your rage to subside then arm yourself.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Let me guess. They rape women.

I think the book The Fourth Turning and its sequel talk about this.

Eventually, the world will get tired of our shit and do something about it. It will not be pretty. Mainly economic suffocation…. That’s the only way the rest of the world can hurt the US.

Given how well that worked with Russia, yeah don't expect much help.

Look to the past for a view of our future.

Violent protests probably. Even republicans don't want fascism. But there is nothing we can do without a hero assassin... At least 3 of them actually.

Even republicans don’t want fascism

Yes they do.

Even republicans don’t want fascism.

A “Trump Boat Parade” in Jupiter, Florida, on Sunday was joined by neo-Nazis waving swastika flags, shouting “White Power,” “Heil Trump,” and “Make America White Again!”

What's been truly revolting is in watching how many liberals have jumped on the fascism bus. Kristen Gillibrand is fully in bed with the Silicon Valley techno-fascists. Richie Torries can't get enough genocide, whether its via our migrant concentration camps at home or our outsourcing of genocide to the Middle East via Israel and Saudi Arabia. Sitting Democrat NYC Mayor Eric Adams has gone all in on MAGA, after receiving pardons for his chronic misuse of public office and funds from the President. Gavin Newsom is flirting with Charlie Kirk and Steve Bannon as a podcast host. Half the 2026 Texas Dem Congressional slate is fully in favor of turning the US/Mexico border into the new Iron Curtain. The Florida Democratic Party wants a Bay of Pigs 2.

It's Italy in 1924 all over again. Oops! All fascists.

Violent protests

this is what the fascists want. any excuse whatsoever to declare martial law, impose curfews, 'papers, please' checkpoints, and 'papers, please' thugs going door to door, looking for anyone they don't like so they can send them to the concentration camp.

thoughtcrime doesn't entail death, thoughtcrime is death

[–] [email protected] 32 points 6 days ago (6 children)

I keep hearing this so often "they will take any opportunity to declare martial law" this so often its starting to sound like autogenocide

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Hey where did they get that picture of me!?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 days ago (3 children)

Better check your phone bro, I think they might be spying.

We're already at the thoughtcrime stage...

Funny how Republicans online were the ones crying about that, but now they're salivating at the idea of deporting Mamdani for the crime of being a socialist. Can't have those political opinions, that's wrongthink!

Might wanna check how long the line of succession is

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 days ago (1 children)

It's starting to look like the movie "Desperado" (or perhaps the entire "El Mariachi" trilogy)
