Context : talking about pro-cop libs
Would you agree that people generally have the belief that the police are essential? I think that it causes people to not be able to imagine society without them
Response I got:
That’s a straw man argument, you are building up an effigy to burn.
Idk plz help
Offering a radical departure from typical context isn't a strawman. If you said that every single cop was literally a nazi-worshipping klansman, that's sort of a straw man.
well i guess that's kind of true, but you get the point
