Proof by strawman imaginary counter-example
- InitialLastName 4y agoThe first 2 sentences of the article we're discussing: > On an early April morning, around 4 am, a San Francisco Fire Department truck responding to a fire tried to pass a doubled-parked garbage truck by using the opposing lane. But a traveling autonomous vehicle, operated by the General Motors subsidiary Cruise without anyone inside, was blocking its path. I don't think it's intolerable to use a straw-man argument when discussing scarecrows.
