What is the strawman fallacy? *

Where you present limited choices as the only choices, when in fact, additional
options do exist.

An argument that because someone in a position on assumed authority has said
something, it must be true.

An argument that is misrepresented or simplified so that it is easier to discredit.

A criticism where, instead of criticizing the argument or ideas of a person with whom
you are conversing, you criticize the person themselves.

Calls into question the purity or actualness of something as a way to refute an
argument.
