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.

Maybe this question seems stupid, so be it. But I've seen mostly bad news, and I struggle to get away from it.

I want to know this: What do you think is going to be good and or great in the upcoming four years of us politics?

There's a good chance he dies.

I think that's actually a worse scenario. Trump, while evil, doesn't really have the focus or energy to fully enact the entire range of bullshit he could/people say he will. If Vance takes over, his billionaire puppeteers are in full control and he'll enthusiastically continue on with Project 2025. If there's an election in 2028, he gets to run with the advantages of being the incumbent President instead of a VP hoping to take over from his predecessor.

I call that "God's ultimate veto"

But then we get a couch fucker as president.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I'm hoping he does before the inauguration.

My money's on choking to death on a burger while sitting on a toilet and jerking it to a picture of his daughter.

Great, President Vance is cuming for your couches.

The best case scenario: Trump, Vance and RFK Jr. all take the same Boeing flight to the inauguration and it crashes.

I understand the sentinment but understand that a majority of voters voted for them.

Americans have decided they'd be willing to risk fascism for a chance of the gas prices drop by 5 cents.

They die then Speaker of the House Mike Johnson is president. He will baselessly claim the democrats shot down the plane.

There will be a nationwide purge of any non-maga-republicans.

I don't think someone else's death is ever a good thing to hope for

I don't think someone else's death is ever a good thing to hope for

I strongly disagree. There are many times where someone else’s death is something to hope for. I think if you try you can think of a few relatively easily.

I'm afraid I cannot. That's why I have that view. To each their own tho, I still appreciate your perspective!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Normally if agree but I'm willing to make exceptions.

The only problem is that then Vance gets to step up and while Trump is willing to use Project 2025 to get what he wants, Vance is one of the authors.
