I’m heavily downvoted in this comment section because I dared ask a hypothetical philosophical question?

If you do it in a way that feels like you're "just asking questions", that's a dishonest gesture often used in alt-right pipelines to astroturf discussions. sealioning is what it's grown to be called.

If you were being genuine, I'm sorry you weren't believed. But this is sadly an increasingly common internet tactic out there.
