Of course it was a straw man. "Lawful orders of police" =/= "Systematic Nazi oppression and mass genocide of ethnic and religious minorities" in even the most generous interpretations. Your argument didn't just attempt to move the goalposts, it moved the whole stadium. To a different planet. In a different solar system.There is no "straw man" fallacy in my post. You don't need to waste your time addressing it. If it was a poor example, then it was a poor example. My bad, it was the first example that popped in my head while multitasking at work of forced compliance.
Any thoughts on the citizen in the video? Was he right to not comply?
