Everytime someone makes a strawman argument, people give them a pass. Bad reading comprehension is fine with most.
Then someone calls it for what it is, a strawman, and they get downvoted for using that term rather than… Defending an absurd stance they don’t actually hold.
It’s irritating, and I see it on Reddit and Lemmy both all the time.
