The people whom you're posing the question to (other Lemmy users) aren't in any position to answer the question, and you (should) know that. Therefore, your "question" wasn't asked in good faith and was instead merely a rhetorical tool used to "present false or distorted claims by framing them as questions."

Yes, this tactic is often used by conspiracy theorists, but they don't have a monopoly on it, as you so clearly demonstrated.

    Since you cannot possibly know what is going on in my head, you are basically just projecting your own intentions here
