You’re effectively arguing that there is no point in picking up your litter at the park because there is a pacific garbage patch…and man the garbage can is all the way on the other side! It’s like a full time job to throw away my litter! Me throwing away my litter is so tiny in the grand scheme of things, so it’s not my fault if I just toss it on the ground.
We both agree major changes need to happen. But every time you leave your litter out, you’re contributing to the problem as well and shoulder some responsibility. It’s not like throwing out your litter precludes you from pushing for systemic changes. It’s just something you can do, right now, to minimize your contribution to it.
And buying from places like I suggest is even more useful because it helps them thrive and spread. While I don’t see how throwing away your litter really helps it spread.
It’s not a strawman, it’s an analogy; I’m not saying this is the argument you are making, but the equivalent of the argument you are making.
Although, I have to laugh at the fact that you claimed I said the exact opposite of what I literally and explicitly stated, and now are all up in arms over an analogy as a “strawman.” lol
You’re making my argument for me.

I said the exact opposite
No you’re main argument is effectively arguing that. Or I should say it’s the equivalent argument.
That strawman is taking one hell of a beating.

When you reverse an argument and claim it is equivalent, you are either extremely illogical or dishonest.
Perhaps you’re experiencing some kind of mania.
Okay, I get it. You realize your position is no longer defensible and lying is all you’ve got now.
Take care.
