@GidMK @tylerblack32 The reason I responded as I did is because the first tweet in your thread indeed made the hyperboilc claim that lockdowns decrease suicides. So yeah there was a little bit of hyperbole (equating suicides to overall mental health) in response. Welcome to the Internet. — PolitiTweet.org

@GidMK @tylerblack32 If you think you're being straw-manned, you should be more precise about what you're saying. In various tweets in your thread, you're both suggesting that lockdowns decrease suicides and that there's no relationship between them. The former is a much more ambitious claim. — PolitiTweet.org

@GidMK @tylerblack32 @ZoeMcLaren Given that this is a thread about strawman arguments, mayyyyybe you shouldnt claim with no evidence or examples that people assume they "perfectly correlate" as opposed to the very intuitive assumption that they somewhat correlate? — PolitiTweet.org
