If is a centuries old anti-Semitic trope to see powerful, evil but smart Jews behind everything.
If you forget it (but what would you), it's still fallacious
> Ad hominem (Latin for "to the person"[1]), short for argumentum ad hominem, is a fallacious argumentative strategy whereby genuine discussion of the topic at hand is avoided by instead attacking the character, motive, or other attribute of the person making the argument, or persons associated with the argument, rather than attacking the substance of the argument itself.
- buboard 8y agoRight, but what is weird in this case is that the person who calls the company run by the two smart jews evil is jewish himself.
- admax88q 8y agoWhy is it weird for a person to dislike the actions of a company run by other people? Or are you surprised that Jews are not a homogenous group that all think the same?
- perl4ever 8y ago"If is a centuries old anti-Semitic trope to see powerful, evil but smart Jews behind everything." Of course, but I get that vibe from some of the criticism of Stephen Miller I read, too. I bet there are not too many people defensive of Miller and Soros equally.
