No. Because you’re jaq’ing off. Perhaps literally to your perceived victory, however in this context, it is not so much a logical fallacy, as a political maneuver, and a different type of deflecting, which stands for “Just Asking Questions”. You’ve offered virtually no evidence in favor of your argument, while you ask several short questions in a row that sound persuasive, but take an extremely asymmetrical amount of time to answer appropriately. An often cited example being when the flat earthers ask “If the earth was round, why don’t airliners ever fly over the North Pole?” In reality, there are several very good reasons why they don’t fly over the North Pole ranging from the concept of great arcs on a spherical planet, to longstanding international treaties, but it takes about 10 minutes to explain all that, after which the flat earth or will usually say something like “Do you have any proof for any of that?” At which point the second party will usually just give up and walk away, wherein the flat earth or will strut around with the level of victorious satisfaction that is also seen in a Boomer who “Really gave that telemarketer an earful”, but in actuality accomplished nothing.
So no. If you refuse to give any reasonable arguments for your case, do any of the independent reading I’ve recommended from well respected professionals in the field, and insist on redefining commonly used words to fit your position, then I cannot help you. You are exhibiting the same dogmatic insistence that’s a Hallmark of the religious fundamentalists that you seem to be arguing against. You’re not using deductive reasoning and logic, or any evidence to come to the conclusion that you espouse. You’re starting with the sertitude that you are correct, and then bending logic into a pretzel to make that the case. I’m sure you’ll make a great politician someday.
It’s not. Why do you ask? I stopped trying yesterday when I realized that my four year old makes more compelling arguments about why he shouldn’t have to brush his teeth every night. I just got board while pooping earlier today and decided to try one more shot in the dark. Didn’t work.
Deflecting, deal with the argument.

How is that primary evidence coming?
It’s not. Why do you ask? I stopped trying yesterday when I realized that my four year old makes more compelling arguments about why he shouldn’t have to brush his teeth every night. I just got board while pooping earlier today and decided to try one more shot in the dark. Didn’t work.
Actually pretty good, I learned a few things.
