That’s not the creation of a straw man
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

lmao. Let's review what you said that I responded to.
lmao, so? we get it. you hate the US. what’s your point? just to come here and whine about it?

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)_/¯
7 0 ReplyI 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).
27 0 Replyyou misrepresented what I said to make the argument easier to defeat.
when your unimaginative rhetorical tricks fail, you hurl insults.
6 0 ReplyYou're complaining about hurling insults? Here's you in this thread:
what’s your point? just to come here and whine about it?
are logical fallacies all you guys know?
“nuh-uh” isn’t a convincing argument. most people learn this when they’re 5.
“I know you are but what am I?” is not a convincing argument. most people learn this when they’re 5.
your inability/refusal to understand is not my problem
I’m amazed you didn’t snap your own neck with those mental gymnastics
Insufferable
27 0 ReplyThe Reddit brain on display is amazing. My favorite part is when he uses debate terms incorrectly.
Like it's clear that he's heard people use the terms but doesn't actually understand what they mean.

so sad. lol

Lol
26 0 Replyoh, look, another troll from hexbear misquoting me. guess that’s all you know how to do ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
someone should teach you kids how to read
5 0 ReplyNo, I'm mocking you because I don't respect you. Why should anyone take you seriously when your only response to any sort of citation is to pretend not to know how to read and post Reddit-tier debate bro buzzwords that you clearly don't understand the meaning of. It's hilarious.

26 0 ReplyI you can’t argue against “graphics”, you’re just admitting how weak your position is.
lol

you are now strawmanning to avoid engaging with the subject at hand
15 0 Reply“I know you are but what am I” isn’t a convincing argument. most people learn this when they’re 5.
1 0 ReplyI can copy and paste a response to every comment you make as well. It doesn't make you right, you just copypasta your response and move on. If that isn't a logical fallacy I don't know what is
17 0 Replycongratulations on discovering copy/paste?
let me know when you discover a rational argument based on fact that’s actually relevant to the discussion.
