A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

              Ban cars
Legalize drugs
Basic income for unhoused and impoverished funded by said drug taxes

Umm I don't think a municipality can superscede state and federal law.

So maybe you could ban cars, with the exception of state vehicles.

What people put in their body is none of your fucking business

[–] ultra@feddit.ro 0 points 11 months ago

That's true, but if someone gets convinced to try drugs, they become addicted most of the time and it ruins their lives. IMO free rehab and no criminal charges for people that are already addicted would be a better policy

What fucks up your brain even more than drugs is being forced into perpetual childhood.
