Poor Clutch.

I will help you out, but just a bit. An ad hominem is when the person is attacked instead of the issue. I did not avoid the issue at all; it is there in the posts for everyone to read. I simply ‘added’ the insults because imo you earned them. Perhaps you thought the “ad” in ad hominem covered that. Sorry, no.

OTOH, I don’t care to help you understand why you bristling over your great grandfathers probable nickname, on behalf of someone else who likely lacks integrity, is idiocy rather than an ad hominem attack.

I could explain it, of course, but in my experience the deliberately ignorant prefer to stay that way.

Warmest regards to you too!

Bristling? Seriously?

I don’t even know how to respond to that.

You obviously mistook me for somebody who gives a s*** about what you think.
