You said:

Do you support the party platform or not?

That's a binary choice. A yes, or a no.

My response is that no, it's not a monolithic structure, it's composed of various planks. I support all but a few. Anyone who treats it like a monolithic thing to either be supported or not is not using critical thinking skills.
