    That’s not the creation of a straw man, that is an accusation I’m making of you, specifically, based on the fact that your comment in no way addressed the idea. If you read my comment you’ll see that I also address your “argument” directly.

      I saw this in another comment, I think it works here:

      “nuh-uh” isn’t a convincing argument. most people learn this when they’re 5.

      hat is an accusation I’m making of you, specifically, based on the fact that your comment in no way addressed the idea

      just because you don’t understand (or refuse to acknowledge) what I said doesn’t make me wrong or you right.

      If you read my comment you’ll see that I also address your “argument” directly.

      with a logical fallacy. I pointed this out

        “nuh-uh” isn’t a convincing argument.

          when you have t twist my words into something other than what they meant just to score imaginary points, it’s not me who looks bad… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

            I quoted you incredulously asking why someone would post and comment about this and then made a comical version of you incredulously asking why someone would post and comment about this. That’s not a straw man, unless you’re trying to tell me that you’re a scarecrow (because you certainly need a brain).

              you misrepresented what I said to make the argument easier to defeat.

              when your unimaginative rhetorical tricks fail, you hurl insults.
