常见逻辑谬误:strawman/稻草人

strawman

You misrepresented someone's argument to make it easier to attack.

By exaggerating, misrepresenting, or just completely fabricating someone's argument, it's much easier to present your own position as being reasonable, but this kind of dishonesty serves to undermine honest rational debate.

Example: After Will said that we should put more money into health and education, Warren responded by saying that he was surprised that Will hates our country so much that he wants to leave it defenseless by cutting military spending.

你歪曲了别人的观点,使你自己能够更加轻松的攻击别人。

你夸张、歪曲,甚至凭空创造了别人的观点,来让你本身的观点显得更加合理。这是一种极端不诚实的行为,这不但影响了理性的讨论,也影响了你自己观点的可信度。因为如果你可以负面的歪曲别人的观点,你就有可能从正面歪曲自己的观点。

例子:Will说国家应该投入更多的预算来发展教育行业,Warren回复到:“想不到你这么恨我们的国家,居然想减少国防开支,让外国列强有机可乘。”
