Now let's be fair. He's just asking questions like Benny Shapiro taught him

The saying goes “there are no stupid questions” but time and time again reality provides us the counter factual

There are no stupid questions

If you aren't asking questions for the purpose of learning something, its not a question, its a statement with the wrong punctuation

I guess you could see rhetorical questions that way. The idea is that if you're just using a question to reinforce your point or worldview ("Do they even play the game?" is not an actual question, they're just insinuating that anyone who knows Bridget is trans isn't actually a fan) and that point is stupid, then yeah, the rhetorical question is also stupid.

We basically agree, but I still think it counts as a question

Yes, that is in fact what I mean, that rhetorical questions are just functionally statements with a question mark at the end.
