So you’re saying that any time somebody says “strawman”, whatever they’re arguing against is always valid?

That’s completely stupid, because the guy saying “strawman” could just be a troll, or just a guy paid to respond to everything with “strawman.” Anybody who thinks a “strawman” response proves anything is illogical and should feel bad. Really, you should be ashamed of yourself.

What I did above was to deliberately misrepresent what you actually said, and then attack the misrepresentation. This both avoids having to address your actual argument, and also gives me something really easy to attack.
