We need a word that describes "questions that cannot be answered with a simple yes/no asked with the explicit intent to make a sound bite for stupid people." Germans do this kind of thing all the time. Some compound word like "stupid dummy-faced shitheel question." Studu-fashtion.
It's called a loaded question, but that doesn't really have the weight of how destructive this has been to society
I'm enjoying how easy it is to use ratfuck to describe using proceduralism to try to manipulate democracy, maybe something along those lines?
