• The term ‘sociobiology’ was coined by Edward Osborne Wilson in 1975 with the publication of his famous book, Sociobiology: The New Synthesis. Sociobiology attempts to explain the evolutionary mechanics behind social behaviors such as altruism, aggression, and nurturance. Wilson’s book sparked one of the greatest scientific controversies of the 20th century. (www.wordiq.com/definition/Sociobiology).

• [Richard]: [...] when the person belatedly identifying as [Sock Puppet ‘SA’] posted Message No. 10530, what would have otherwise been circumstantial evidence immediately caught my eye ... to wit: the quaint ‘I will like to’ phrasing (rather than the regular ‘I would like to’) in those ‘I want to be free and will like to set up a meeting’ words.

And that ‘I will like to’ phrasing is common to both of the Online ID’s/Internet Aliases you have asked me about in your above query. Vis.:

• [Sock Puppet ‘SA’]: ‘Okay, I want to be free and will like to set up a meeting (...)’. (Message No. 10530; Sat Dec 17, 2011 1:26 pm).

• [Sock Puppet ‘SA’]: ‘My name is S[**] A[**] and I live in India, currently, but I am of European origin. I will also like to meet up with you’. (Message No. 10548; Wed Dec 21, 2011 2:46 am).

• [Respondent No. 6]: ‘I will like to hear more about everyone’s experiences and progress in last few months (...)’. (Message No. 3627 [3637]; Sat Nov 22, 2008 4:26 pm).

• [Respondent No. 6]: ‘I have nothing to hide from any one around me, but i do like my privacy and will like to keep it that way.’ (Message No. 6184; Fri Jul 24, 2009 6:42 pm).

• [Respondent No. 6]: ‘I do not have any specific queries about the meeting, but will like to know as to what issues (...)’. (Message No. 8099 [8138]; Thu Dec 10, 2009 9:55 am).

• [Respondent No. 6]: ‘The name is pronounced any which way you will like to pronounce it’. (Message No. 8155; Sat Dec 12, 2009 11:34 am).

• [Respondent No. 6]: ‘(...) when i used the word conversation. yes, i will like to hear more about your observations’. (Message No. 8159; Sat Dec 12, 2009 8:14 pm).

• [Respondent No. 6]: ‘If you and Richard are going to meet, i will like to be the fly on the wall’. (Message No. 8816 [8817]; Mon Jan 18, 2010 6:57 am).

• [Respondent No. 6]: ‘(...) have also become free and will like to take time in sharing that information with people at large.’ (Message No. 9587; Thu Apr 1, 2010 5:08 pm).

Incidentally, during the computer-search for those above instances it became conclusively evident that nobody else had ever used that particular phrasing ... everybody else posting during that period (2008-2010) used the regular ‘I would like to’ phrasing. Richard to No. 24, 26 January 2012

And:

• [Richard]: How come [No. 2] has now taken it upon himself to speak in such a paternalistic manner on behalf of [quote] ‘the sharer itself’ [endquote] when she is, and quite evidently so, eminently capable of speaking for herself, in one or more of her many guises, both before and after he posted his above oratorical crowd-swaying harangue?

Straw-man:

straw-man (n.): a weak or sham argument set up to be easily refuted. ~ (Princeton’s WordNet 3.0).

A straw man (sometimes written as "strawman") is a form of argument and an informal fallacy of having the impression of refuting an argument, whereas the proper idea of argument under discussion was not addressed or properly refuted. One who engages in this fallacy is said to be "attacking a straw man". The typical straw man argument creates the illusion of having completely refuted or defeated an opponent’s proposition through the covert replacement of it with a different proposition (i.e., "stand up a straw man") and the subsequent refutation of that false argument ("knock down a straw man") instead of the opponent’s proposition. Straw man arguments have been used throughout history in polemical debate, particularly regarding highly charged emotional subjects. Straw man tactics in the United Kingdom may also be known as an "Aunt Sally", after a pub game of the same name, where patrons throw sticks or battens at a post to knock off a skittle balanced on top.

The straw man fallacy occurs in the following pattern of argument:

• Person 1 asserts proposition X.

• Person 2 argues against a superficially similar proposition Y, falsely, as if an argument against Y were an argument against X.

This reasoning is a fallacy of relevance: it fails to address the proposition in question by misrepresenting the opposing position. For example:

• Quoting an opponent’s words out of context—i.e., choosing quotations which misrepresent the opponent’s intentions (see "fallacy of quoting out of context").

• Presenting someone who defends a position poorly as the defender, then denying this person’s arguments—thus giving the appearance that every upholder of such a position (and thus the position itself) has been defeated.

• Oversimplifying an opponent’s argument, then attacking this oversimplified version.

• Exaggerating (sometimes grossly exaggerating) an opponent’s argument, then attacking this exaggerated version.

Examples: Straw man arguments often arise in public debates such as a (hypothetical) prohibition debate:

• A: "We should relax the laws on beer".

• B: "No, any society with unrestricted access to intoxicants loses its work ethic and goes only for immediate gratification".
