    Again, I made no attempt at making an argument, so my statement could not be an ad hominem argument.

    When someone made fun of you in school, did you say “well, akshually, that’s ad hominem ☝️🤓”

      I don’t think we should behave as if we are school kids. I think we should behave like grown ups and respect each other, while discussing these matters.

        Now, see, that’s a straw man argument, because I didn’t say we should behave like school kids, I just used a tangential example involving school kids.

          If you’re not interested in discussing the issue at hand that’s okay.
