Strawmen are illoyal representations of arguments, these aren't strawmen, people actually spout these absurd viewpoints.

strawman: an subject matter made for the purpose of showing it's own flaws
these pictures for example show various issues that libfags preach, we just boil them down to their most basic elements and show how stupid they are in a sarcastic way

Saying "strawman" is not an argument. It's the equivalent of saying "racist." It's your obligation to refute the strawman or point out any inaccuracies. A strawman is literally boiling down one's point to the most efficient explanation possible, which is a good thing and lets the process go faster. If it slanders the opponent, the opponent must refute it.

I agree, a fallacy is a crack in an argument. If you merely state there's a crack and then walk away acting like you've won then you've done nothing.
You need to open up the crack and use the fallacy as a basis to argue why the opponent's argument is wrong.

Someone can just throw endless strawmans of changing variations each making a different point than the last. So the conversation would have to stop over and over to refute each strawman.

unless this is cross exam though, in which case they would just be wasting their time limit presenting a bunch of strawmen in the first place, you don't and can't interrupt them. so instead he makes 1 or 2 strawmen and then continues his argument based on them. Then on your turn you explain why the strawmen are wrong and thus ruin his case he built around them

Then why do Christians follow the 10 commandments? Throughout the Gospel, Jesus preaches about them, just reworded.
"Do not think that I came to destroy the Law" (Mat 5:17)
One of the ten commandments is thou shalt not commit adultery. adultery in our country legally means cheating, but adultery in the bible also means having sex outside of marriage. Which gays obviously do anyway.
The point is that you cannot be gay and Christian at the same time. it is what modern christians are trying to push because church attendance is at a record low and they want to keep their tax-free business cult running.
I was brought up christian all my life, now agnostic because as a gay man who tried to be a christian, i knew i just couldn't make myself straight and i knew you just couldn't have gay sex and be christian at the same time.
do you think i would give up gay sex? lol

because jesus (keyword) talks about them. a bid notion of christianity which a lot of christians (sadly) ignore is that everyone went to hell before jesus came and also only believed in the old testament before jesus came (coincidence?). i completely understand how christianity would conflict with your homosexuality but in general christians really dont have any obligation in their ("our" in case you havent guessed) religion to be homophobic. i think milo yiannoupolis does a good job of explaining how he reconciles homosexuality and catholicism. im
not trying to force it on you just saying christians dont necessarily have to hate you and the ones who do dont do so cause christianity forces them.

but saying "God hates fags" is not the same as "I hate fags". It's not 'homophobic' to preach what is said in the Bible. it also mentions homosexuality in romans chapter 1. it's not just the old testament.
what do you mean everyone went to hell before jesus came? i've never heard that before.
"To be clear, this is not to suggest that in similar circumstances, a person who engaged in this activity would face no consequences. To the contrary, those individuals are often subject to security or administrative sanctions. But that is not what we are deciding now." - James B. Comey, FBI Director
This is criminal. He is saying that there is not equal treatment in this case.
