My post was removed from no stupid questions for a rule 1 violation

The title was clearly formatted in the form of a question, and the question is actually about something real. Who at this community decides what isn't a real question? What are the criteria, and why isn't the OP asked to verify their question before a post is removed? Is the only criteria for a rule 1 violation that enough people downvote and report? If so, be transparent and update rule 1 to "MOB RULES".

Furthermore, I had at least two commenters say that my question was stupid, when clearly in the sidebar, it says there are no stupid questions. If I had known we just make shit up as we go, I wouldn't have even asked.

No Stupid Questions and Shower Thoughts seem to be moderated and frequented by NPCs whose only litmus test for discerning if a question is an actual question or a thought is and actual thought is asking themselves, "would I have asked this question? would I have had this thought?" and the answer is no, because they only have the capacity to think about their own basic functions. For them, keeping their bowels from releasing is a constant and conscious activity.

Very dissatisfied, won't recommend that community to anyone.

...is this more of an introspective question, or would you like me to start rattling stuff off?

Actually, I want you to feel shame and then fuck off

I mean, I feel shame daily for a wide variety of things, but I don't see the correlation to this post.

EDIT: was it the bowels thing?
