Q: What does "stray-manned with a projection" mean?

it became a meme because it was stray-manned with a projection, like most memes are in the internet

--------For context------

A: Big W for all Japanese learners
>we did it fam
>https://twitter.com/Dogen/status/1431196525426720770

B: well it's not a win because no one is actually offended by it, it's just a silly meme
well maybe someone is offended by it but if so they're a stupid dumbdumb

C: Yes because there is only way to say it that exists and they'll suddenly be unable to say anything in Japanese once the evil 外人 have "taken away" their phrase (impossible btw.) Have you guys ever seen or heard with your own eyes and ears someone genuinely being offended by a Japanese person saying that?
Even within language exchange I personally haven't. Pretty sure everyone is just enjoying a meme at this point and taking it seriously outside of context where it's genuinely meant to offend someone is silly.
And I mean that end of it isn't partial, both sides joke about it constantly. Maybe if you're out of touch it'll cause problems but otherwise I don't see it

D: it became a meme because it was stray-manned with a projection, like most memes are in the internet
so naturally, it is what it is
what I'm more afraid is the eventual "woke" people who would hijack things
where things started off innocently mostly as a joke, and then later became a sense of entitlement
too early to feel that way I know, but it's the one thing I learned from "western twitter" - namely america

C: This is like light-years of difference in the kind of culture it concerns.. I just don't see it mattering enough
Maybe in tiny facets of people but those are people everyone else besides them already hate
A: okay, I actually follow Dogen on YouTube and know exactly what you're talking about, I just don't speak a lick of Japanese and definitely can't read it, so this is hilarious!

I'm not 100% sure, but because it doesn't come up in a Google search work quote marks, I think "stray-manned" is a typo spelling of "straw-manned".

A "straw-man" is a term for a kind of logical falacy. To "straw-man" someone/an argument is to present a less-nuanced, more extreme version of their idea that is much easier to counter in an argument (or when talking about the person that disagrees with you to others you already agree with you).

It's a metaphor that gives the image of, instead of fighting a person you disagree with, you fight a straw-filled, light-weight scarecrow that can't fight back, then say you beat them.

I'm not sure what "projection" means here, but my best guess is that they're using the meaning from psychoanalysis, which is "To assume qualities or mindsets in others based on one's own personality".

If that's true, then
"it became a meme because it was stray-manned with a projection, like most memes are in the internet"
means:
" 'Your Japanese is so good!' became a meme because people who heard it and felt insecure projected their worst/silliest fears/insecurities about what native Japanese *could* mean by saying that to them onto those people, and making up reasons they would be doing that that are easy to argue against."

Is that more clear? That was a massive sentence.

(I'd also say that the "seriousness" of what I wrote has more to do with how overboard people go with making memes than anyone being angry)
