    It’s clear you are choosing not to understand the difference between what you said and what the question said. I can’t save you from your willful ignorance.

        Well, judging by your levelheadedness here, she obviously has nothing to worry about. /s

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man

        A straw man fallacy (sometimes written as strawman) is the informal fallacy of refuting an argument different from the one actually under discussion, while not recognizing or acknowledging the distinction. One who engages in this fallacy is said to be “attacking a straw man”.

        The typical straw man argument creates the illusion of having refuted or defeated an opponent’s proposition through the covert replacement of it with a different proposition (i.e., “stand up a straw man”) and the subsequent refutation of that false argument (“knock down a straw man”) instead of the opponent’s proposition. Straw man arguments have been used throughout history in polemical debate, particularly regarding highly charged emotional subjects.
