Not exactly, but I have to admit I wasn't completely clear in my own expression. What I was trying to say is that making assumptions about the experience and knowledge of one's debating opponent can detract from the substance of one's arguments.
I'm sorry if my words sounded as though I was saying you are dumb. I merely intended to point out that belittling one's opponent in place of factual argument is counterproductive.
Have a good day.

No shi'ite.
