Loaded questions, **or** ones based on a false premise, are not allowed on ELI5. A loaded question is one that posits a specific view of reality and asks for explanations that confirm it. These usually include the poster’s own opinion and bias, but do not always – there is overlap between this and parts of Rule 2. Note that this specifically includes false premises.
