The person I was arguing with was saying that “infrastructure is anything which is something anyone can do”. I gave an example of something that anyone can do which isn’t infrastructure.
It’s absolutely a direct refuation — a counter-example which disproves their original statement. It’s not a “straw man”, as much as you get mad and scream that it is.
So you were wrong from the beginning. He never said “infrastructure is anything which is something anyone can do”. You are the only one who said it. He provided an example of a service provided by the infrastructure in question
Your straw man is “shit in their pants”
