When I lived in georgia there were a couple hurricanes that came awful close. Had to go out during one to get the generator back on.

I wasnt messing around, put on multiple coats, thick work gloves, a helmet, and boots. A plank of wood went through a neighbor's window while I was out there.

Hopefully one day these people will be able to take thier helmets off like I was able too.

I looked at "(1)", found that you do not know what a straw man is, and did not bother to look at the rest.
I'm happy that you're learning the tricks of discussing, but you need to learn to speak the language before trying to sit at the table. Notwithstanding that it is, indeed, your right to do so anyway.

(1.)You use ad hominems left and right though. (the personal attack)

Perhaps you should practice your own preaching of critical thinking (the knocking down)

So is he using straw man or ad hominem?

its pretty clear? i am accusing him of multiple straw men

Most of our conversations, including this one, is just me pointing out the metacommunication without adding too much to it.
If you consider that an ad hominem, I guess you don't know what that is either. We all gotta learn though m8, keep discovering :>

I don't agree with what you said so straman, reeee, ad-hom.

He'll get that helmet off someday im rooting for him.

usually at JSP insults are against the rules but they fit nicely with this thread topic................................ thanks for playing

Ad hominem is a type of argument or attack that appeals to prejudice or feelings or irrelevantly impugns another person’s character instead of addressing the facts or claims made by the latter. It involves attacking an opponent's character or motives rather than answering the argument or claim. The term comes from Latin and is used to describe comments made against an opponent to undermine them instead of addressing their arguments.
