Is going AFK acceptable when you are being inted?

So I'm a very long time league player as I've been playing since season 2. As of now I'm much older and don't have a lot of time to play League of Legends. I've also never gone afk before accept for 1-2 emergencies that have occurred in my life. My question is regarding being inted. This got me thinking because recently I was playing a game as adc, which I enjoy playing but my support decided early in the game she wanted to troll the entire time. She was playing Janna and would just walk under the tower and die over and over. Also would dance and "forget" to use any abilities if a fight broke out. The issue comes when I only get to play 1-2 games if I get the free time. If this is my only game I get to play why do I have to suffer for 40 minutes while the other team drags out the game. Sure we could come back, but I just wasted my free time for the evening being trolled. Is this game just useless to play if you only have time for 1 game? Don't want to leave my other teammates hanging when they want to keep playing, but I also want to be conscious of the time I need to recharge.

I would recommend not doing that, even in those circumstances, I would recommend you just report them after game.

Someone inting you is a fault on their side, but if you AFK, your fault is in the AFKing. The only case in which AFKing isn't your fault is if someone DDoses you and makes you disconnect.

Said fault of AFKing is in your hands and your hands only and is entirely regardless of your situation on your side, whether you have 1 to 2 hours to play or 10 to 12 hours to play. Your own times' availability doesn't affect your ability to AFK or not, no matter how much your frustration tells you the two things are related cuz they're not.

It is for me and nothing and no one will EVER change my mind.
