An ad hominem isn't when I insult you you fucking idiot. Its literally right there where you quote me. Read the text you actual imbecile. Click the link to realise youre such a common halfwit that this text is a copypasta.

Cry again, wikipedia:

Ad hominem, short for argumentum ad hominem ('argument directed at the person'), is a rhetorical tactic of attacking the character, motive, or some other attribute of the person making an argument rather than the substance of the argument itself.

So if you arrack the person instead of the argument, you guessed it, ad hominem! Saying someone is a moron instead of debunking the fact he threw at you, guess what? Ad Hominem!

Learn some latin for gods sake.

Do you read the text you're quoting?

is a rhetorical tactic of attacking the character, motive, or some other attribute of the person making an argument rather than the substance of the argument itself.

It is making the argument about you instead of about the argument. There is no argument with an insult. It is not "making the argument about you" it's just an insult. It is only when the character is tied to the argument that you see an Ad Hominem. You monumental idiot <- Also not an ad hominem.

There's even more than one form - as I also wrote for you. Learn some basic english, for gods' sake. https://www.logicallyfallacious.com/fallacies#letter-A

I'm going to block you now. You've shown yourself to be so thickheaded you can read and quote a piece of text and still not understand it. Talking to you is an embarassment, you absolute oxheaded brick.
