Sarcatorical Question

A sarcatorical question is a question asked sarcastically with no desire for a legitimate answer. Often used to allusively insult a debate opponents argument, or to state a bigoted opinion in a nefarious attempt to seem genuine with the option to feign ignorance if criticised for it (see: sealioning)
Example of a Sarcatorical Question : "If slavery was so bad, why didn't black people run away?"
