Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity 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.

Anyone who says
Sirens go off immediately 🚨
🤨
Just like their other post ITT, it's engagementbait at best but probably just ragebait
Anyone who calls their irrationality challenged "engagementbait" or "ragebait" when they can't refute it because the challenge is absolutely correct.
Semi-closeted racist alarms?
Anyone who fails to get references & leaps to hasty judgements. Same reason as above.
someone that loves to punch down, and with bigotry, not just racism, including a little sexism, and anti-lgbtq+phobia.
Someone who subscribes to the pretentious "punch down" concept & seems so full of themselves they toss around assumptions of "bigotry", "racism", "sexism", "anti-lgbtq+phobia" on the thinnest of evidence perhaps out of insecurity. Basically, anyone who says things that are a bit sanctimonious & haughty rather than cool & thoughtful possibly because they didn't get enough hugs growing up or maybe too many.
Go on and watch some Greg Gutfeld or Jesse Watters, because it seems you need to have examples of "punching down" put before you. You'd have loved you some Rush Limbaugh.
Anytime someone of privilege is mocking anyone less fortunate than they are, that's punching down, and I don't care if you think it's pretentious or not. The pretension here is all yours, bully boy.
Maybe read a book or two besides ones written by fox news personalities or published by tpusa
