Original Note:
This is an example of an "ad hominem" logical fallacy - an argument that attempts to invalidate an opponent’s position by attacking their character rather than by addressing the argument itself. This distracts from the actual issue being discussed and can be misleading https://www.grammarly.com/blog/logical-fallacies/ https://www.scribbr.com/fallacies/logical-fallacy/ https://www.thoughtco.com/what-is-logical-fallacy-1691259
