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.

Maybe you should actually read the studies you link.
There's 100s like it if you actually care. Also I don't see why that matters
Yeah, that's the problem. You can't even bother to read and understand the studies you link. You see the title and thinks "ah yes, that agrees with my agenda"
No. I read the fucking study. Your objection doesn't alter the results. And it's not like there isn't a tonne of information about this topic. You are choosing to ignore the science by quibbling about an irrelevant detail in one study
Not at all. But the question I raised from the start was that it matters where the meat is from.
Just like it matters where the plants are from.
Farmers have been using pesticides that kill bees in the millions. That will factually do more harm to the ecosystem than "the meat industry" ever could.
But maybe you want to focus on agriculture that doesn't use pesticides that are known to kill bees. Maybe then you think it matters. You know, when it suits you.
So the whole point of "but it matters where" is very relevant. A lunch resturant business in London. Isn't exactly representative of a normal every day person in the slightest.
Oh FFS. Theres bad agriculture and there's meat raising which is bad agriculture with worse bits tracked on. Your point isn't wrong is just irrelevant
That's the funny part. If you think my point is irrelevant, so is yours.
I don't think you understand the point I just made but I'm done with this conversion it's clearly not a good faith discussion. Good luck to you
