It could also perhaps be framed as ad hominem or appeal to hypocrisy, though neither truly fit. Not really a straw man fallacy, which involves presenting an intentionally weak version of a relevant core argument to easily rebut it. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] homes@piefed.world 5 points 2 months ago Fixed permalink fedilink source parent [–] GalacticGrapefruit@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago (1 child) Ooh.
