Is that intended as a snide criticism? I see so often an attempt to force “controversial” commentators into answering “yes or no!” as some sort of “gotcha”. Often the argument is that simplistic reduction of a nuanced stance is the actual problem being argued against. I see no issue with refusal to engage in the game as rigged by an opponent.
