That doesnt make it the same thing
Its not an ad hominem by definition
Douchebag is
No its a descriptor
as you say..
But it isnt
Not in the context you were using it
I didn't say "your argument is invalid because you're a douchebag."
or is that only vested when I throw insults?
hypocrit
hypocrite*
This is the intellectual equivilant of "no u"
now he wants to be intellectual..
If I say you look like your are doing something out of confirmation bias and you call me a douchebag that is an ad hominem
If I say your argument makes you look stupid because of the argument not because of YOU that is not an ad hominem
You attacked my character I did not attack yours
No. It was insulting to imply that I looked that stuff up on the spot and was ignorant about what I was talking about. That was an attack. To which I responded..
I was attacking your argument
You attacked my character
Thats the difference
Although this isnt much of a conversation
plausible denyability
> I feel like you googled that and then just regurgitated it to fulfill your confirmation bias without knowing what any of that actually means or implies
yeah because this isn't being a dick at all.
I attacked your argument
You attacked me
There is a difference
I mever said this is all wrong you're an idiot
Lord this is like talking to a wall at this point
No, you told me I had confirmation bias without having a basis. You told me I didn't know what I was talking about. That's an attack.
I said I suspected confirmation bias
It might not be as explicit as calling someone a douchebag, but its still being a dick.
Hence "I feel like X"
Being a dick =/= an ad hominem
I feel like you're a cocksucker.
now your just getting nasty
no its not an attack
I'm just saying i felt like that
You're just looking for a good time since you can't go run out and get any
It's okay
:^)
