Black People : Strawman Argument - What is it? - Please Provide Examples

[Angela22]

I haven't surf the net or been on other Mb, so if this is mild.....I still don't think that it is at the level of maturity that should be exhibited by our members. This community is made up of well spoken, educated scholars. We have the verbiage to get our message across without the negativeness which is spewed on some of the thread topics. Lets do better!

I agree!!

Let's DO BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am so impressed with how members have come forward to help destee, myself, angela22 and others who might not have spoken out, but still did not know what 'strawman' meant.

You took your time and posted explanations and examples one after the other to make sure that we got a good idea of its meaning and how it's used.

Thank you all so much!!

Yeah, true dat. I always brushed it off when it was used...like, it didn't really matter if I understood it because I don't ever remember being told I was using it!
