!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.

Hi there, I'm a registered nurse in Phoenix, Arizona and I'm seriously considering moving abroad because this country is driving me insane for a lot of reasons. I was considering moving to Israel since I'm Jewish and I've heard they have a better healthcare system there and pay nurses well but this war has made me not really consider that anymore, so I'm open to suggestions. Thanks

Sorry if this seems lazy, but Canada has a decent population of Jews. Since you are a nurse, you have a better chance of getting in. Obviously there's a ton of paperwork involved, but might be worth looking into.

If you speak French, France might also be a good choice. Hella good worker's rights there.

Not to brag but I speak French, Hebrew and German alongside English.

Yeah I've heavily considered Canada though ironically it seems they're going to elect their own Trump and might become more like the US. Still, I'm seriously considering it.

Not a brag, your languages very relevant to finding a new place to live.

I wish good folks would stay and fight. But at the same time, I don't blame anyone for leaving.

[–] JewishLeftist@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yeah part of me wants to help make PHX more liberal, but another part of me just wants to get out.

[–] Boozilla@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I get it. I have friends and family who want to emigrate if orange idiot gets elected.

[–] JewishLeftist@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yeah I mean I'm a woman so the fact he wants to end abortion rights once and for all alone makes me want to leave..

[–] Boozilla@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I'm hopeful--perhaps naively so--that he's pissed off most of the women voters and he will lose. The justice system is taking way too long to put him in prison where he belongs.

[–] JewishLeftist@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Totally on your side there

Worth noting that the Prime Minister does not have the same executive powers as the President. If Polivere actually wins a majority of seats (unlikely), he’ll still have to work with everyone else to get things done.

It’s more likely the conservatives will win just enough seats to have to run a minority government and work with the Liberals, NDP, BQ and possibly Greens. And I don’t see the current conservative party surviving more than one election cycle.

French and German? Definitely Switzerland then!

Well in France they need police armed with machine guns to guard synagogues so probably not the best choice for me.

[–] merde@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

that's the army, not the police.

yes, they became an awkward part of the daily life in cities since the bataclan attack. see Vigipirate. But they are not particularly guarding synagogues. You can see them in front of churches or in train stations or touristic and popular places too.

if you needed to add "leftist" to your name, i suppose you're familiar with The Society of the Spectacle. They are not there to protect you, they're there to make you feel protected (worse, to make you feel like you need constant protection!)

[–] JewishLeftist@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Damn if the army is needed, its even worse than I thought. I guess I'll have to pass on France

[–] merde@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

it's probably not as bad as you think.

Why the panic mode?

[–] JewishLeftist@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I mean if the army needs to be stationed on the streets for safety, then thats bad.

The Society of the Spectacle

how do you pass any law that infringes on previously earned rights if you don't create a sense of urgency?
