      you’re doing it right now, just oozing smugness smuglord

      You know how poc can tell when they’re speaking to a racist through various cues and feelings without any overt direct racism occurring? Well it’s the same for classism.

        You do not really know when to stop, do you? The ad hominem attacks simply make it completely uninteresting to interact with you. Even if your points are valid, which I am not getting in to, they will not be read (at least by me). Some people do enjoy fighting people online. I do not.

        If that feels/seems like classism to you, fine. Have a nice day.

        EDIT: Also, if that picture is what you have in your head when reading my replies – you are projecting. I have literally never felt like that while conversing online. Nor in real life really. You assume far too much.

          The ad hominem attacks

          she isn’t doing an argumentum ad-hominem, she’s just insulting you, those are different things (not that it would matter as this isn’t a formal debate)

          “your argument is incorrect because you are a dickhead” ← ad hominem

          “you are a dickhead” ← just an insult

          Holy shit if you don’t want me to fucking reply to your smug ass bullshit just stop replying with smug ass fucking bullshit?

          ad hominem

          You people say these debate pervert words because you think they’re magic words that automatically place you higher than the other person, in every fucking sentence you’re just looking for ways to elevate yourself above me instead of understand me. You all think you’re digital harry potter casting EXPECTO PATRONUM every time you say this cringe ass shit. Magic “i win” reddit bullshit instead of trying to actually level with someone. All ego.

          Yes it’s fucking classism.

          Cast some more magic spells harry, logical fallacy my slippery slope. Now I’m just being mean, I wasn’t lying when I said I fucking hate this shit as you can see.

          “Lol that picture of a smug vapid piece of shit has exactly zero resemblance to me”

          I’d like to hold up a mirror to you for a second if you’ll allow me:

          If you were a FUCKING FRACTION as smart as you clearly think you are, wouldn’t you take a second to read the room?

            I never associate “Ad hominem”, “whataboutism”, etc to magic words but it’s exactly how people see it. They use it and boom they win the argument.

              they hear or read the words but don’t learn the concepts, or are downstream of a bunch of people who used it wrong.

              and i say wrong here because they were trying to say something else and failed to say what they meant, not out of prescriptivism.
