No Stupid Questions

You've decided to leave Lemmy after being downvoted for posting links to conspiracy videos disguised as a question?

FWIW, I didn't downvote you, but surely you must see why other people have?

I'll provide some similar examples, hopefully you can see the problem.

"Is it true that deep down women really want to be treated as slaves? These Andrew Tate videos raise some compelling points. Link. Link"

"Is it true that black people are trying to wipe out the white race by diluting the purity of our bloodline? Here are some convincing videos. Link. Link."

Obviously these examples are worse than yours, but they're exactly the same form. Nobody wants that kind of thing in their feed. Nobody wants to be asked to watch tinfoil-hat crackpot garbage before they can properly answer a question.

Its supposed to be where you ask questions that you worry might sound stupid to ask, but you are legit trying to gain info / a new perspective, in good faith; Not for promoting weird "Bill Gates Microchip" conspiracy theories by disguising it as "just asking questions".

Phrasing conspiracy theories as a questions does not make them a questions, stupid or not.

Troll grade: C-.

There are bad faith questions and sometimes it's not easy to tell the difference.

Were you sealioning? There's little tolerance for that kind of move.

Of course, you're just asking questions! /s

Every single one I've seen from you is pushing some agenda. I'm honestly surprised it's taken this long for Lemmy to catch on.

Unfortunately there are a lot of stupid questions here that are stupid because they don't actually fit the theme of "something you're kind of embarrassed to ask". A lot of them, like this one, aren't even actually questions - they're just thinly veiled rants

Obviously from what others say you are a troll.

But can I also point out how "people disagreed with me, so I ran away!" Is such a cowards way of handling things. How can anyone grow if all you do is surround yourself with folks who only agree with you.

There are gross ones, those get downvoted too.

It's not that the questions are stupid, it's that most of them are lazy questions that you could have found very easily with a simple google search.

Questions are just questions. How they’re framed can be inappropriate or unwelcome, but the question itself is just a question.

Asking a question that’s already answered isn’t asking a stupid question, just inappropriate. Same goes for asking a question where the intent appears to be to demean someone else or push an unwelcome viewpoint.

Well…. bye.

Yes really. But there are stupid people unfortunately that are not interested nor incentivised to change their predicament (privileges are very permissive to this kind). Someone stupid asking honest questions is the first step to healing though.
