Learn the Art of Debate: The Ad Hominem Fallacy:

You are an unimaginative, impotent weasel, therefore you are wrong

❌️ Ad hominem attack, weasels are still capable of making valid claims, however unlikely

You are wrong and also an unimaginative, impotent weasel

✅ Reasonable induction from available evidence, not an ad hominem

genuinely the hardest part of arguing with reddit-logo brainworms is explaining the difference between using an ad-hominem argument and just being extensively insulting. Not because it's particularly hard to define an ad hominem argument and create examples, just because the brainworms are so deep set.

"I'm not saying you're wrong BECAUSE you're stupid, I'm saying you're wrong AND you're stupid."

[–] BodyBySisyphus@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

It's also a deliberate obfuscation because so much discourse on reddit-logo isn't about the intellectually honest search for the truth, it's about getting community support by reinforcing the majority consensus, within which saying "Hey you insulted me no fair" makes you sound peevish and weak while saying "that's an ad hominem therefore you are wrong" adds to the collective veneer of sophistication and helps head off any actual engagement with the content.

That site tag seems exactly like the type of thing a troll, shit, shithead, baby brain, nazi apologist, colonial comprador, freak, nerd, rabid imperialist westerner, condescending dickbag, disingenuous idiot, and unimaginative impotent weasel would write if I’m being honest thonk

I love the subtle detail, they are both holding a print out of 'list of fallacies' from wikipedia

I've been talking and engaging with y'all for a few months and never once have I been called any of these. What gives?

Thanks. I thought I was just doing it wrong or something.

[–] the_kid@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

you must not be engaging in our heated hexbear debates like stacking rocks

[–] roux@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

Tbf, I've been depressed lately.

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 21 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They love calling people names

Yeah, cuz it's funny

It's just like famous bedbug whats-his-name

[–] AcidSmiley@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago

They do sound a lot like an unimaginative impotent weasel, too.

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 19 points 1 year ago (2 children)

disingenous

Who called them that? Show yourself, reddit-logo

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

lol yeah they were definitely an ingenuous idiot.

they clearly are disingenuous though. Someone complaining about being called a nazi who refuses to talk about why they were being called a nazi is pretty sus

[–] KatraCommunist@hexbear.net 17 points 1 year ago

Lemmy libs are reddittors confirmed for like the 1000th time

not beating the allegations smh

[–] GenderIsOpSec@hexbear.net 15 points 1 year ago

rage-cry They called me a peepee poopoo head!!! (because i am violently trans- and homophobic and spewed out a slew of slurs, but i will never admit that)

[–] BeamBrain@hexbear.net 15 points 1 year ago

nerd Post hoc ergo proper hoc you did an ad hominem, so QED you're wrong

[–] CarbonScored@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago

I don't love calling people names, but when people are just maliciously vile, it's a kind of duty

[–] FourteenEyes@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago

It's true, though, he never apologized for being a Nazi
