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. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

I believe the tarrifs are good. Though for other reasons than Trump. The current (previous) situation is super unstable and unsustainable. It basically require a global US monopoly of violence (which was the case for about 30 years). Trade imbalance implies war (as stated by Keynes).
However, the arguments of the Trump administration are completely false and uneducated.
We've all been drenched in neoliberal propaganda for about 50 years (disguised as science), so it's not weird people are unable to think outside of the box on this matter.
Also, super valid question. Don't get the down votes.
How did you make it through life with such a blatent lack of critical thinking skills? Your comment history is full of these dumbass takes. I mean my God man. You sound like a fucking cartoon character. Neoliberal propoganda disguised as science? What the actual fuck does that even mean? Take off your tin foil hat and take a walk man. Clear your head. Jesus christ. What has happened to our world where no one believes in science? It's fucking science man. Not everything is a political conspiracy. Not everything revolves around a political agenda. Some things just exist, like science. Reading comments like this make me want to jump off a bridge. It's hard for me to accept that there are actually people that fucking gullible and stupid. I mean do you just listen to the people screaming the loudest? Do you have no concept of logic or reasonability?
Nothing you said can even be considered a coherent thought. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
Take them meds bro.
Do you even believe in meds? Or is that part of the "neoliberal science conspiracy" too?
I believe in meds and I believe in science. Especially the science of complex systems. I don't believe in political philosophy branded as science. The reproducability metric of social sciences and political economy is so bad that the complete field should move into humanities and philosophy (which isn't bad, but it isn't science). Aspiring sciences.
I mean it isn't a secret that huge amounts of resources has been poured into neoliberal think tanks since the 70s. It's an ideology which justifies the rich getting richer. Such stuff always get at lot of funding. It's inherent.
I don't think I'm the one who's in lack of critical thinking here Mr 420.
