A strawman is when you credit someone with an opinion or argument that they don't have for the sake of having a credible argument of your own. If someone makes a valid point and you can't debate it, the strawman solution would be to pretend they said something else, something that's easier to argue against. While it generally only applies to actual debates or arguments, Kane Knight lives in an argument, so it's possible for everyone to setup strawmen all the time.

That being said, this:

And I know BDC wouldn't be counting this guy because he's from ROH

...could qualify as a strawman, unless BDC has actually stated at some point that he quite literally does not like guys explicitly for being in ROH. It's making up a feeling and crediting it to BDC, when BDC may not have actually expressed said point, solely for the purpose of slamming on BDC. For all I know, BDC could have said it and KK could be wrong, or my interpretation of which point is the strawman could be wrong--I just thought I'd throw it out there since, if I were a betting man, I'd be money that there's going to be a lot less actual explanation in the next few posts and alot more... uh... the opposite of that. Especially from Kane Knight.

BUT THAT'S JUST ME



I'M BACK BABY




Oh, and I highly approve of this El Generico fellow.
