No, I don't think any method of direct or indirect questioning is bad in this context, while you have a problem with both a roundabout and a direct critique of someone's employment choice, be it Meta or Amazon. You said it yourself that I should be direct in my critique so that I hopefully get deplatformed.

Find a less harmful employer instead of projecting your insecurities into someone's question, and trying to silence critique of any kind to ease your conscience.

Cool, so as I suspected, you support engaging in bad faith, and asking bad faith questions.

Just say that from the very beginning if that is your opinion. Not sure why you would do this song and dance of denial, if this is just what you believe.

I'm not sure what you're understanding from my comments at this point, but I said it early on that I see no problem with a bad faith question when it comes to questioning a Meta enginner's employment choice. I kept repeating the same thought over an over. You can be content with something in a specific case, and at the same time not engage in it. This also doesn't mean that someone will usually support a bad faith argument, or engage in it, as you seem to want to conclude.

Awesome! Got you to admit to it them! Now don't start crying when people accuse you of supporting asking questions in bad faith.

Just say "Yep, that is a totally valid thing to accuse me of supporting. I agree that you are correct in saying that I have no problem with asking questions in bad faith!".

You could have avoided all of this, if you just said that from the beginning.

Good luck with that ridiculous generalization, and the partial quote that removes the context.
