Gavrah
I believe you are mixed up on the definition of straw man
You raised a valid point about the writing of Greek in the BM
However, I pointed out that you cant extrapolate from that. Because you will only find a narrow allowance of greek language allowed (because of yaft elokim layefes). And you can not extrapolate from there an allowance of greek culture.Nor can you extrapolate to any other culture or language other than Greek. (I just did the gemorrah that mentions one reason for acher going of the derech is because he sang greek songs). Chazal has no tolerance for embracing goyish culture.
Thats not a straw man, It’s me telling you your source is incorrect so go look it up.
On the other hand
The OP raised the concern that MO is allowing a lot of cultural mixing (perhaps based on torah im derech eretz).
So all the references to problems in other branches of yiddishkeit, well that is the definition of a straw man.
