Using the method of pretending to be confused to deal with the question of implied false assumption

There is a kind of complex question in the dilemma, which refers to the question with some false assumption by using the "anchor sinking effect". No matter whether the answer is positive or negative, the wrong assumption in the question will be admitted and fall into the trap of the questioner. Such as a person accused of stealing other people's things, but dead do not admit to stealing. Then the interrogator asked, "do you want to steal other people's things in the future?" No matter whether he answers "steal" or "not steal", he falls into the wrong assumption that "you stole other people's things" implied in the Interrogator's question. For example:

Once a neighbor stole a horse from Washington. Washington and the police found the horse in the neighbor's farm, but the neighbor insisted that the horse was his own and refused to hand it over. Washington thought for a moment, covered the horse's eyes with both hands and said, "since the horse belongs to you, which eye do you say is blind?" "Right eye." The neighbor replied. Washington took his hand away from the horse's right eye, which was shining. "Ah, I made a mistake," the neighbor corrected. "It's the left eye!" Washington moved his left hand, and the horse's left eye was bright. "No! I'm wrong again. " The neighbor defended himself. "Enough, enough!" The policeman said, "that's enough to prove that the horse doesn't belong to you! Mr. Washington, let's take the horse

Why are neighbors seen through? Because Washington is good at using the stereotype to make his neighbors psychologically believe that a horse's eye is blind, which is called "anchor sinking effect" in psychology. The neighbor was hinted by the sentence "which eye is blind" and decided that "the horse has one eye is blind". Therefore, after guessing the right eye and the left eye, he could not imagine that the horse's eye was not blind at all. Washington just wanted him to show his true shape on the spot.

Therefore, we can't answer such questions, we can only ask the other side, or pretend to be confused and don't understand the other side's meaning.
