    Importantly this was deployed in a reply to someone calling them out for completely ignoring a cited argument. The “strawman” here is saying something went over their head.

        I’m sure of it.

        And why do these debatelords only ever reflexively invoke the same one or two fallacies all the time? Where’s the love for equivocation? The non sequitur? The composition fallacy! Lord knows they have enough experience with that last one

          I used non-sequitor! Dude was trying to compare the situation in Ukraine to the Palestinian crisis, saying that if Russia was justified in invading Ukraine (which was not my arguement) then Israel was justified in occupying Palestine!

          They of course rejected the idea that it was a non-sequitor and continued posting bizarre things.

            Wait, didn’t Palestine hold the area before (current) Israel? I’m terrible at modern history.
