No. Ad hominem literaly means "to the man". Attacking the speaker instead of the substance of what they said is a textbook ad hominem.

You just don't like what he said because it's true.

The other poster wasn't participating in an argument with Matt Walsh. You don't seem to understand the basics of logic.

>You just don't like what he said because it's true.

Cute following up with a fallacy of your own.

oh please. HN's bias is exactly the same as reddit's. -4 for posting facts, and fallacies. It couldn't be more obvious.

No, I'm just annoyed when someone bleats on about any fallacy and doesn't understand it. Your willingness to attack me in the same way is amusing though.

'You just think X' is silly. You know nothing.
