a straw dog is a scapegoat group, place, person or idea in which we dump our evilness, so we can blame it and then by attacking, dissing or destorying it, we externalize it outside of us so we feel free of sin.
America often uses an 'out group' as a straw dog, such as Communists, terrorists, labor unions, gays, in order to deflect attention from the bad things we're doing, such as exploiting the environment or third world labor.

Get the Bendy strawmug. A piece of a drinking straw, approximately an inch and a half to two inches long, with the top half of the tip of one end cut off. (Similar to the red ICEE straws.) Designed for getting powdered drugs neatly and safely out of their baggies and onto a mirror or counter for sniffing.
