what's it called when people keep using the accusation of straw man fallacy to avoid the real discussion? that must be a term for that one.
there's also a term for that fallacy when you try to accuse the person saying something (crazy, aggressive, exaggerated, alcoholic etc.) rather than adressing the real subject of the discussion... what is it again?
or when they try to divert attention to something else instead of commenting on data and facts that have been posed.
