"No one" was? News to me that I wasn't talking about him. We weren't talking about JFK either until I brought him up as well but I don't hear you bitching about that, do I? lol... Do you not understand how comment threads work?

Look up the definition of ad hominem bud cause you clearly fundamentally don’t understand what you’re doing. You can’t discredit an argument by attacking the speaker no matter how hard you try, it’s a fallacy. You can absolutely argue in any state you want and if the argument has merit it has merit.

Funny enough, I have a literal poster beside me with the definition. This is not it, buddy. You can definitely recognize someone in an altered mental state not thinking straight when rational thought is not yet possible. It's like trying to get through to someone in an insane asylum. At some point, it becomes fair to wonder if someone is in the right state of mind before proceeding. Ever try to argue with a drunkard while sober? lol!

I can discredit the argument when I won on substance and now you move to deflection and irrational thought.

Jesus Christ you are just too fucking stupid to know what’s going on. I’m having a hard time believing you’re real right now. Once again my entire point is that you brought Trump up out of nowhere. What isn’t subjective. And that being a straw man is also not subjective. The point is not subjective. You’re so fucking weird.

Now that's an Ad Hominem! I see you practice what you preach, is that right buddy?

Once again I raised JFK out of nowhere yet I don't see you crying, moping, seething over that — funny how that is?

I'll raise Trump a thousand more times if it pisses you off this much with glee. Ironically, you still couldn't get back to the point LOL.

Anyways, this has been amusing. Bystander audience sees you lost so I rest my case.

I will graciously oblige you with the final response.

You'll need it.

Ad hominem: (of an argument or reaction) directed against a person rather than the position they are maintaining.

Similarly arguing under the influence is a no no.

Funny enough, I have a literal poster beside me with the definition

I don't doubt that for a second. You clearly don't absorb information in front of you

Now that’s an Ad Hominem!

That's me trying to reason how you can possibly be this consistently ignorant, it's not my argument in the way you trying to say "you're just stoned so you're argument isn't valid". Read your poster.

Once again I raised JFK out of nowhere

You can't be serious. Do you even know what a strawman is? You weren't imposing that on someone's argument when you did. How can you not see how fundamentally different that is?

I’ll raise Trump a thousand more times if it pisses you off this much with glee

Go for it, I'll agree with it if when it fits the context. I hate Trump. I hate strawman arguments even more and I'm disappointed in this echo chamber that enables you

I will graciously oblige you with the final response. You’ll need it.

God damn school must have been rough on you edge lord
