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.

if DT was anyone else he would have been held with no bail for having 90+ pending felonies and having been convicted of 32 already. The fact that his passport has not been restricted is clear evidence that being "rich & famous" gets you different treatment.
There was a thing he said back in the early 2000s, and it was leaked around the 2016 election. He was talking about women, and said something to the effect of "When you're rich, and famous, they let you grab em by their pussy".
People at the time were angry that his views were that, but, honestly, that's the life he's lived. That's the life he knows as reality. WE see it as disgusting, because he's saying that women can be treated as sex objects, and that he's ok with that. He see's it as just the world we live in, because women approach him and treat THEMSELVES as sex objects. Those are the women that approach him, so that's the experience he has with women. Women who only want him for his money.
And now we see it even applies to the courts. Maybe we should still be mad at him for having those views, but also understand why he has those views, and start holding society accountable. Maybe we should be angry at parents who don't teach their daughters to have more self respect than to find some rich guy to bang for money.
Because at the end of the day, all trump is saying is "I get treated differently, because I'm rich."
And as angering as that is to hear....he's not wrong. He's just an asshole.
So by this logic if some 12yo girl is flirting it up big time with a grown ass man and they fuck. Instead of being mad at the man for doing this, we should blame the little 12yo girl and her parents for not raising her better(?) Should we instead sympathize with the man cus "Oh that poor guy, all he's ever known is having sex with children! Lets not blame him! Thats just his life and how he lives!"
It's called having a set of functioning fucking Morals. I'm not going to jump off of a cliff- or better yet, get into a tin can to go and see the titanic just because "oh this is just what I'm exposed to, this is normal for me, other rich men do it so this is my life now." He is a grown ass man in his 70's now. He knows that adultery is wrong; don't blame the woman for her already shitty lifestyle. You think those woman wanna fuck Trump and his soggy ass?? Woman don't typically thrust themselves at old men with cash unless they are severely fuck outta luck and have a terrible life as is... or they just have a fetish for em. Prostitution is their JOB. And 9/10 they're likely fucking slaves to a pimp or are being trafficked. Why tf do you think Trump was friends with Epstein??!
Sorry I got severe ADHD and a lack of a filter. When talking about stuff that pisses me off- pedophilia for that matter- I tend to put far more emphasis on stuff like that as a reminder of just how actually uncomfortable that shit is. I particularly do this to people who don't understand just how god awful pedophilia is. I dont like to sugar coat or dance around subjects like that by using nicer or softer words. I find pedos revolting and uncomfortable, so I'm gonna describe them in a way that is revolting and uncomfortable
TLDR; I get passionately angry about some shit and its reflected in how I type or talk. The worse the subject the more Hard-hitting or offensive my vocabulary may be to express said emotions I have on that subject
