    Having some fun, but they are not strawmans. Expecting/demanding that literally the entire world and everything in it turns on a dime is what this guy wants.

        Not strawmans, again he is literally demanding the entire world change end over end in 2 years. Are you/we going to play repeat now? Sounds like fun.

          Every part of that is a strawman. There are zero demands in the post, no references to the entire world or 2 years, in fact his specific accusations you are intentionally strawmanning away from span his very lengthy career as a politician. Do you know what a strawman is, are you aware you almost exclusively address arguments with a strawman? Its ingrained into how you type even

            Nope not a strawman, that’s what he demands when he says the world hasn’t changed in 2 years wrt drilling. The time frame is 2 years, as explained before. See repeat, you say yes, I say no.

                “When he says” followed by a paraphrase of what he said, or followed by the underlying logic of what he said, is not a strawman.

                  Sure. But youve given neither. Im not being cheeky with technicalities like “oh he used a synonym but he didnt use that exact word”. Nothing alluding to a demand, nothing alluding to the entire world, nothing alluding to a 2 year timeframe. Youve made all of it up.

                More repeat? Are we having fun yet? Not a strawman when it actually captures what he says, he wants the world to overhaul on a dime.

                    Oh the strawman accusation isn’t working out so you demand quotations now. Oh wait you didn’t say the specific word “demand” so I can’t say you just demanded, according to your logic. So again, it captured what he said. Fun times yet?
