How can you call it a strawman if you haven't read the manifesto that the supposed strawman is for? Doesn't that make anything you say about the manifesto an accidental strawman because your, apparently intentional, lack of reading distorts your own arguments in order to convince others? Or at least make it indistinguishable from a strawman?
Just go read the damn thing, friend. Sheesh.

- chaps 3y agoThanks for reading it, friend. Love and kisses, and I hope your family is doing well in these hard times. <3
