Your word salad exposes the fact that you have absolutely no clue regarding the subject you're attempting to debate.

Ok, I havent considered that argument. How to even respond to such ad hominem?

If you state absurdities then don't expect people to engage with that nonsense seriously. What you're doing is just trolling which wastes everyone's time. If you don't want to have a serious discussion then move along.

At least learn what ad hominem means if you're going to keep using it to try and make yourself sound smart. Ad hominem would be me dismissing your argument by attacking your personality. I'm dismissing your argument because the argument itself is nonsensical drivel as I've explain in detail in another reply in this thread.

It generally means an attack on the speaker, instead of showing fallacy in the argument. As you may have noticed I made no claim of ad hominem in the other reply chain. Just here.

What it actually means is to attempt to discredit the argument by attacking the speaker instead of the argument.
