ubiq: Correct me if I’m not following your line of thought/reasoning correctly. You’ve taken the following positions:
1. Most Chareidi men would vote against women’s suffrage today.
2. Joseph claims he would vote against women’s suffrage today.
3. You think there’s a 90% likelihood that Joseph is pulling everyone’s leg on this. (Or Poe’s law or trolling or whatever you want to call it.)
4. You think there’s a 10% likelihood that Joseph is expressing an earnest opinion. In which case Poe/trolling doesn’t apply.
If I’m following you correctly, my question is do you think that having the sincere opinion that women’s suffrage was and is a bad idea is an “extremist” opinion. Then please define why you think it’s extremist. And if so, you by definition think most Chareidi men are extremists.
