the overabundant use of "strawman"; almost like it's Life's Word of the Year.

Have you actually ever heard someone say that or are you projecting?
A projection is when you perceive others to be doing what you do. An example is Trump accusing others of lying. He's projecting his behavior upon them.
A strawman is an argument no one actually made, taken from "tilting at straw."
What you meant to ask is if it was a strawman. Which is hugely ironic.
