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.

I'm not blaming immigrants at all. I'm blaming chineses. It's their culture bud. There are thousands of years of written records for that country, and buying/stealing land is pretty much the only cultural constant over every dynasty, warlord, or ruler you care to read about. Mao, despite killing millions with ballslapping ignorance, was one of the first to seriously go after landlords. Unfortunately, money always wins so now they're back to everybody gotta get theirs first. The world is a zero sum rock as far as most people are concerned, there and here.
That's pure racism.
But I get it, you aren't allowed to be angry at the actual people responsible for your lack of ability of to afford housing, because if you did, you would have to acknowledge that you helped put the people in place who screwed you.
So instead, we will pretend our problems are the fault of other people. Because we are cowards. Yes?
There is no fault. Lmao It's about money. It's always about money. And it turns out chineses are real good, culturally, at making money. Something about having few qualms about where it comes from. Its almost funny being able to see a 100 story high-rise from a village that would be third world by any standard, but its actually sad. But that's just the chineses, doing China things. It's only been that way since the Han dynasty, if not longer.
Every large city in the US has tent cities within yards of a skyscraper.
Your criticism of the Chinese in this response is that they are an unbalanced mix of too rich and too poor. Kind of sounds like our country, huh?
Your racism doesn't appear to be based in logic here. Is that on oversight on your part or was it a conscious decision?
