Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling 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.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

When I was young, used to believe that social-pressure could make everybody behave/conform.
Understanding the existence & approximate-nature of psychopathy, now, & KNOW that that's suicidal naive-delusion.
Hard-walls are required for many, & permanent-segregation is REQUIRED for some individuals.
I wish serial-rapists & serial-molesters were segregated as systematically as serial-killers ( where the lives killed were "in their way" ) & serial-murderers ( where the murder is the point ).
Their prey deserve to NOT be their prey, & social-making-believing/pressure isn't good-enough.
NO amount of social-pressure's going to make people conform, if they just aren't wired that way.
( the left consistently assumes that social-pressure cannot be disobeyed, & that is about to cost the US everything, as total-dictatorship's going to be activated shortly.
It's currently at the point where the Democrats are utterly-powerless to impeach Trump, because the hour they table the beginning of that process, Trump invokes the Insurrection Act, & then it's done, & probably, the Dem electorate are executed. )
