      How many of you will hallucinate an opinion for me today -- because you are bad at mind-reading -- and then criticize that hallucination like it is my fault? I call it the Observer Problem.

      Much easier to call it a straw man argument.

      Different idea. A straw man is intentional. Hallucinations are not.

          I'm pretty sure most straw manning is not intentional. It might be good to distinguish the two, but I don't think it was ever a requirement.

          I can tell the difference, at least 80% of the time.

          Both intentional/unintentional forms are the Strawman Fallacy. But you can call these hallucinations something else, if “mind-reading” doesn’t capture it well.https://twitter.com/strxwmxn/status/1343936790831517703 …

          It’s more the Strawman Fallacy. Mind reading is the charitable interpretation. Willfully ascribing to you the weaker argument — knowing you didn’t really make it — is just as common.

          Interesting distinction. But I think the illogical commit straw man fallacy unintentionally. They don't understand logic.

          The assumed intent may be a hallucination.
