Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
8) No Bots.
Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

According to the Lemmyleft the only way to be a country not doing terrible things is to not vote and plan on an eventual revolution where working classes seize the means of production from their oppressors.
In the meantime, ensure everyone lets the fascist elements run the table. Thus our consciences are clear and our morals unbesmirched.
The Lemmyright is insufferable, bringing up their complaints everywhere irrelevant.
I haven't encountered the right on lemmy yet
Said the .world user. Lol
Correct.... I've yet to see a conservative post or community here
Sure no conservative views on the neoliberal instance. C'mon son.
Give me some examples? Or when you say conservative do you just mean your individual definition thats not attached to reality?
Judging from your comment history I give you as an example.
Way to not say anything of substance. Boooooooooooooooo
Yeah it’ll never happen. You’ll get prefab insults and maybe a talking point or two. Once in a blue moon someone will - eventually - make a reasoned argument but it’s rare.
Are you not a .world user?
Yes, but thankfully I have the honesty to see what's around me. I'm not saying being on .world makes you that exactly mind you, but again you see it.
You don't need to post the DNC platform.
According to the genocidal center, the only evil in the world is opposition to genocide.
Seeing how you get downvoted for calling it out, and Optimal gets upvoted for saying genocide enablers are good... Yeah.
Holy shit the escalation on Lemmy is just insane. Where the fuck did Optional say genocide enablers are good? There's 0 reason to make that claim. He said something mildly critical of certain streak of slacktivism on Lemmy and now he's a genocide supporter.
Do you ever give even the slightest thought to considering if it would be a bit easier to take you seriously if you wasn't so insanely hyperbolic all the fucking time?
The people getting downvoted for calling it out are somehow the bad guys, but the people upvoted in disagreement they genocide is bad is are the good guys.
Sorry you're too privileged to know better. Must be nice.
Lucky for them that they don't go to work, so they don't have to be part of the worker's revolution. They can just sit at home and be negative on the internet.
Ah yes, they all have no jobs. What's next, you fucked their moms?
No, I do not tangle with lizards no more!
The fascists run the table either way. The only thing they let us do is pick whether they wear red or blue.
Facts do not bear this out
Facts do bare this out, libs would rather downvote and stick fingers inside their ears.
