Ok buddy, you only quoted part of what I said.
I took the part that was essential. Your claim that only things like this is an ad hominem is essentially the same argument.
Your argument is wrong because you’re an idiot
That’s the same as your argument is wrong, because you are angry and hurt, and therefore not rational. Both are equally as much attacks on the person and not the argument.

A statement is only an ad hominem if 1) it’s attempting to refute an argument 2) by attacking the character/motive of the person
Which is EXACTLY what he did.

He/She doesn’t understand anything, he/she doesn’t know me.
If the comment was along the lines of: I understand IF you are hurt and angry, it would be completely different and not presumptuous.
But thanks for pointing out a possibly poorly worded good intention.
As he wrote it, it looks like an ad hominem, because it looks like he accuses me of being emotional and irrational in my argument, which I think I argued based on reason, even though some here disagree in my point.I hope you can at least agree that it was poorly worded.

saying every X user is a fascist seams an oversimplification.
That’s a straw man, nobody I saw here claimed that. The claim is that they don’t mind fascism. Which is not the same.
You can take a country with only 10%, if the remaining 90% remain passive. Staying at Xitter is remaining passive about their fascist propaganda. - Comment on This is a simple and satisfying way to fight Trump and Musk | It's time to delete X 3 days ago:
I think you are confused, the is not lemmy.ml, and lemmy is open source, which is the part where it definitely becomes a false equivalence.
Because just because the developers may be communists, that has zero bearing on the content of lemmy.world.
The developers do not own lemmy.
Musk is a fascist who owns twitter, and has used it to push his fascist agenda. - Comment on This is a simple and satisfying way to fight Trump and Musk | It's time to delete X 3 days ago:
I see you are unable to actually argue your point, and instead choose to continue with the ad hominem.
I’m still interested to hear what bubble it is you consider me to be in? - Comment on This is a simple and satisfying way to fight Trump and Musk | It's time to delete X 3 days ago:
But you have to understand there are people out there from all around the world
That doesn’t change anything, whatever country you are from, using Xitter means you are using and thereby supporting a fascist platform.
You are in your own bubble
OK, and which bubble is that?
Seems to me that you are talking about things you don’t know shit about. - Comment on This is a simple and satisfying way to fight Trump and Musk | It's time to delete X 3 days ago:
False equivalence.
- Comment on This is a simple and satisfying way to fight Trump and Musk | It's time to delete X 3 days ago:
that have no contact with politics
Ergo they are not against fascism.
You just helped prove the point. - Comment on This is a simple and satisfying way to fight Trump and Musk | It's time to delete X 3 days ago:

Ooohh if it’s for MUSIC I guess it’s OK to be a fascist.
But you know the bands go where teir followers are right? Also he is supporting bands that ALSO don’t have a problem with fascism.
It goes both ways. - Comment on This is a simple and satisfying way to fight Trump and Musk | It's time to delete X 3 days ago:
So because there aren’t other options that are as good for your personal use, you are OK with using a fascist supporting platform. But somehow you think it’s unfair to say you are sort of OK with fascism, since you are using a clearly fascist supporting platform.
- Comment on Special Report: Inside Intel, CEO Pat Gelsinger fumbled the revival of an American icon [Reuters] 2 weeks ago:
In gaming, maybe.
No Intel had a per core performance advantage overall with Skylake, when Ryzen came out.
Comparing 8 core to 8 core, the 1700X/1800X were faster
True. But that was because Intel had failed to upgrade their Workstation CPU’s from Broadwell to Skylake.
- Comment on Special Report: Inside Intel, CEO Pat Gelsinger fumbled the revival of an American icon [Reuters] 2 weeks ago:
It was pretty obvious from the beginning that Gelsinger was on some kind of hype train.
He has over promised and under delivered on everything. Personally I disliked him from the start, I saw him as an untrustworthy buffoon.
He was too eager to try to convince everybody that Intel would soon be leading in every aspect. His claim about winning Apple back was cringy. After Apple had made their own chip equaling X86 laptops on performance, but using only half the power.The new Arrow Lake is a disappointment too. Yes it uses less power, but that’s probably mostly due to the improved TSMC process.
When AMD came out with the Ryzen CPU, Intel still had a performance per core advantage, and decent PPW compared to Ryzen.
Historically Intel has always been able to come back quickly from a setback like Ryzen was to them on total performance and PPW per CPU package.But this time around they are making failure upon failure. Extremely Power hungry chips that performed only slightly better, and now chips that have better PPW but are slower despite TSMC fabrication.
It’s now almost 8 years since AMD revealed Ryzen, and Intel still can’t beat it. AMD managed to come back from near bankruptcy with extremely strained budgets. But Intel despite having way more money and R&D budgets to fight back with, has been almost constantly failing for 10 years.
I’m saying 10 years because Intel failed on the 10nm process, and released reiterations of SkyLake with barely any improvements at least 2 times before Ryzen came out.If Intel had made decent progress on their desktop CPU’s the last couple of years before Ryzen, Ryzen would not have been nearly as successful.
Before that Intel tried to compete against Arm with X86, claiming ISA doesn’t matter. I guess $10 billion R&D to compete with Arm and failing, despite using more than Arm’s entire revenue for years would argue that it does.Their GPUs do have decent performance for the price, problem is that the die to provide that is twice as big as the competition. So it’s not competitive to manufacture, it’s just Intel who was selling cheap to move product.

Global warming is the driver of climate change.
- Comment on Trying to reverse climate change won’t save us, scientists warn 2 weeks ago:
How is that relevant to ships? It’s released to high in the atmosphere.
- Comment on Trying to reverse climate change won’t save us, scientists warn 2 weeks ago:
There are gasses and particles that can be released into the atmosphere that will reflect sunlight and warmth away from earth. In theory that could be done very quickly.
- Comment on Trying to reverse climate change won’t save us, scientists warn 2 weeks ago:
Remember it used to be called global warming, because that’s what’s actually happening. But morons thought a cold winter day disproved global warming, so it was renamed climate change.
And yes we can reverse global warming, but obviously that won’t recreate polar or mountain ice, or lower sea levels quickly, but we can get the temperature down to stop it first, which will also curb the increase in natural disasters, then the restoring of sea levels and ice will take at least decades and probably centuries. - Comment on Qualcomm accuses Arm of anticompetitive conduct as its license is terminated due to 'repeated material breaches of Arm's license agreement' 3 weeks ago:

FAFO = Fuck Around & Find Out. - Comment on Qualcomm accuses Arm of anticompetitive conduct as its license is terminated due to 'repeated material breaches of Arm's license agreement' 3 weeks ago:
Dimensity 9400 is spectacular. the 9300 was very good too, but the new 9400 is amazing. It fully matches Snapdragon 8 Elite (Gen 4)
nanoreview.net/…/qualcomm-snapdragon-8-gen-4-vs-m…
It even beats it narrowly on battery, which used to be the strongest point of Snapdragon over Dimensity.
- Comment on Qualcomm accuses Arm of anticompetitive conduct as its license is terminated due to 'repeated material breaches of Arm's license agreement' 3 weeks ago:
I think it’s pretty clear that Qualcomm were trying to leverage the purchase of a company that had patents ARM had an agreement with.
Qualcomm has a long history of being a patent license nazi, Arm does not. So I have no doubt which side I believe more in this. - Comment on Has SpaceX Done Anything NASA Hasn't? 3 weeks ago:

Really? You are asking this?
When I search “shoehorn” literally the first hit is a steel shoehorn. - Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
This is great news, although Intel isn’t nearly in the position they were 15 years ago, they very nearly killed off AMD by their clearly illegal anti competitive strategies.

Problem is that most people who say that, have nothing to replace that works better.

Sorry, that was poorly formulated. The most advanced GloFo factory is in USA.
- Comment on Intel & Samsung Are Reportedly Inking A "Foundry Alliance", Sharing Production Facilities Along With Process Tech 3 weeks ago:
Yes I think that’s exactly it. From what I’ve heard, Samsung has about the same problems Intel does, sharing know how might help both overcome that, so they can compete with TSMC, alone they don’t seem able to realistically match TSMC.
- Comment on Intel & Samsung Are Reportedly Inking A "Foundry Alliance", Sharing Production Facilities Along With Process Tech 3 weeks ago:
It has the most advanced factory in USA, that’s not name only.
