What do you mean devil's advocate is never a liked position, or that you're not necessarily saying you approve?

I have a feeling you don't know what it means to be devil's advocate.

Close. Someone who argues a position he doesn't agree with as a means of testing the soundness of and identifying weaknesses in the original argument. (Unless one wants to be literal about it, in which case it's a canon lawyer who argues against canonization of a saint. Or, for a nod to pop culture, a movie with Al Pacino and Keanu Reeves.)

Not hating. Don't assume disagreement means hate, and don't assume hate where none is expressed.
