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.

I don't think anyone really cares about sports or bathrooms when it comes down to it It's all about the patriarchy. Not a single person I've met has mentioned a woman who became a man going into a men's restroom as a problem. Or them entering mens sports outside of the dimly vieled "oh well they could get hurt and a man needs to protect them from making their own decisions"

It all comes back to people thinking men have to take care of women because they can't take care of themselves without assistance.

It is a reflection of how weak the people who think such are. And projecting and trying to control others lives because they don't believe they can take care of themselves.

If you believe in people having freedom, stop trying to fucking chain them to your ideals. (Not aimed at you specifically)

There is no patriarchy involved though? Even women actively campaign against trans male participation in women sports.

Just take a look at this video: https://youtu.be/i39VHDmawtw

There are no men involved. Just women, so your argument doesn't track

Yes, women can be victims of patriarchy brainwashing.

There are working people who voted for the capitalist party.

Same shit.

A YouTube video of Donald Trump talking on Fox News is your evidence that no men are invoved in having something against trans people. That tracks

[–] GrammarPolice@lemmy.world -1 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

🤨. Are you being intentionally obtuse or what?

[–] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (1 children)

Not at all. Thats the subject of the thread. Why are people, mainly conservatives, against trans people. And you posted a link to a White Male Conservative on a Conservative platform speaking against some stupid shit that doesn't matter, and saying men aren't involved.

The NCAA is a business. If you believe in a free market, then don't make laws to dictate their rules. If people actually care they'll stop buying that product and someone will start a new league with different rules and people can participate there.

If anything, do the country a favor and ban official sports teams from the education system. And people can join leagues outside of the college and it will help get education better suited. Scholarships should be for educating future minds to create a better future, not wasted on someone who isnt there for an education. The amount of corruption in schools do to sports in way to high.

Bro hates Trump so much that he didn't watch past the first 5 seconds💀.

I'm not even going to bother reading what else you typed. You made the argument that the reason people are against trans people is majorly due to the patriarchy, and i linked to an example of a female volleyball team refusing to play a trans team as a direct rebuttal to that point. A rebuttal you would've understood if you had gotten over your Trump hate and low attention span to watch the entire video.

"I'm not even going to bother reading what else you typed"

Proceeds to say I have a short attention span. Yeah there is no way I'm sitting through anything that Fox News broadcasts.
