      And you’re thus continuing to be wrong.

      Deliberate and obvious hyperbole to emphasize a valid point is NOT a strawman, nor is it equivalent.

          …are you going for a record in hypocrisy and stubborn ignorance or something?

          What you just said was a strawman in defense of a categorically false claim.

            First off, with all this philosophy larping, there’s a thing called “the fallacy fallacy”, which states it’ fallacious to imply someone is wrong simply because their logic was fallacious.

            Secondly, me reminding you of how these things work doesn’t mean I’m suddenly “defending a false claim”, especially not with strawmen.

              It is, however, never a fallacy to point out that a fallacious accusation of fallacy is false. Now say that three times quickly.

              Secondly, me reminding you of how these things work doesn’t mean I’m suddenly “defending a false claim”, especially not with strawmen.

              It is when, as in this case, are wrong about “how these things work” and also about what’s even going on. Just take the L and move on, dude. We’ve both wasted far too much time on your bullshit already.

                Larp all you want, that won’t make your comment at the top of this thread be any less fallacious.

                Me pointing out that it was fallacious, which it is, doesn’t mean I’m engaging in the argument. It just means I’m tired of people like you larping they know philosophy when they can barely be bothered to skim the Wikipedia entries on the subject.

                I’m not wasting time. I’m enjoying my time on Lemmy. Aren’t you?
