A question that asks me whether I agree with voting for genocide definitely assumes I am able not to. And if you acknowledge that it isn't possible - why ask? It's a useless question.

Also, this isn't "bad faith" or "dithering". Yet another of your dishonest techniques: accusing someone of being a troll just for challenging your assumptions.

Bad faith is asking someone a question then claiming you asked a totally different question. You're like a child asking "why can't I have a PS5?" over and over again, ignoring me when I say "we don't have enough money", as if that answer doesn't make sense to you.

It is a loaded question begging me to agree with you under threat of looking bad otherwise. Don't you dare try this again.

By the way - my answer to your question is already in the previous comment. It is "of course (if that were possible)".

Like - are you actually fucking stupid? Of course I would prefer not to vote for fucking genocide! Don't be simple. Don't be a fucking idiot. But things are not so simple. You either vote for genocide or throw away your vote. Those are your only options in this vote.
