            Correct. Good thing that my comment was a hyperbolic denunciation of a clear pattern of actual attitudes and behaviors rather than a blame shifting strawman like the one I was replying to.

                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.

                  You think if you can justify a strawman, it isn’t one.

                  That’s not how it works.

                    …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.
