Low-Quality Criticism



- Level 0: At the lowest level (Name-calling) you can call me a dumbo jumbo and meanie, but in the end you're just throwing a tantrum because you don't like me. I think you can avoid polluting whatever public place you have found to do that and grow up a bit, you'll save everyone's time.

- Level 1: (Ad Hominem) you can also criticize my characteristics and pretend that i am too young to know more than you, Oh, The mighty all knowing, you're doing the same thing as the above but you're also trying to puff up your own ego at the same time. Dishonesty in arguments is way too common, resulting in Sophisticated Ad Homiems like in the example below. (Which is a clear sign of immaturity, obviously).

 [...] We still sometimes see deliberate dishonesty, as when someone picks out minor points of an argument and refutes those. Sometimes the spirit in which this is done makes it more of a sophisticated form of ad hominem than actual refutation. For example, correcting someone's grammar, or harping on minor mistakes in names or numbers. Unless the opposing argument actually depends on such things, the only purpose of correcting them is to discredit one's opponent.
