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.

My most immature take on that whole thing is that I wish we could evacuate all the people and then nuke the everloving shit out of the land to make it uninhabitable for a few hundred years. Then let it be a weapons testing site for the world. Just take the whole fucking thing off the board.
Like I said, immature take.
I've been tangentially connected to that area for the better part of 20 years now. Nothing has changed for the better, Israel is worse than ever, Hamas is worse than ever. The assholes that dumped the jews there post ww2 did the whole world a disservice. That country should be Palestine, not Israel, but neither side behaves the way they should. So it's damn near moot at this point.
I don't think the Middle East can chill out until Israel no longer exists.
**no longer is recognized
(it never existed)
It's a religious conflict.
They have no chill.
Currently the Jewish god is apparently stronger, but the Muslims will think theirs probably had a legitimate reason for letting Gaza get blasted to pieces. Plus their holy warriors successfully gutted several dozen slutty party animals, so they might see that as a worthwhile trade, idk. Either way it's a whole lot of nonsense and murder. Their tangled web of inconsistent dreamlogic is not to be understood, it is to be dismissed.
