No it doesn't.
I await your yes or no answer. Please do less making things up.
The context very well makes it clear you're assuming that. Of course it would be better if you could vote for a candidate that wasn't a bloodthirsty imperialist. But that's sadly your only realistic option in your shithole country. Voting third party will be pissing your vote into the wind.
Like I said, either rise up or vote.
At least you have guns over there. You don't have our excuse.
I'll let you know what I assume, thanks. It's not a loaded question, you don't have to agree to anything implicitly, just the actual answer.
Anyways, I await your yes or no answer.
PS this bad faith dithering is the aforementioned cognitive dissonance. It is not complexity, it is discomfort with being frank when challenged.
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.
