Small-Scale Question Sunday for December 8, 2024

Do you have a dumb question that you're kind of embarrassed to ask in the main thread? Is there something you're just not sure about?

This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

Culture war topics are accepted, and proposals for a better intro post are appreciated.

This particular incident is getting a level of coverage that I, too, find unsavory. The posts exist because people want to be edgy; they get signal-boosted because it’s a slow news week. Compare reports about mass shooters, who receive unwarranted fascination even when their manifestos are objectively stupid.
