lol man, lol.

ad hominem is like one of my favorite words. Although I typically have problems with precisely the opposite problem, which is where an obsession with logic or with the obvious and evident leads one to forget the intention, and one just grows lazy and claims that the argument doesn't convince them rather than making any effort to understand the other hominem. And then I often make the accusation that "you don't believe in humans". What would the opposite in Latin be, con hominem? You need to make you arguments more con hominem.
