My intent was twofold: To get someone to clarify the meaning, and to describe why push questions were inevitably closed. We have recently seen a spate of "push questions" at SpaceExploration.SE by a user appeared to be pushing a conspiracy theory regarding the Mars Perseverance rover. Many of those questions were massively down voted, closed, and some were even deleted.
