Meloni heads Italy’s most rightwing government since the second world war. Italy’s criminal code punishes with a fine ranging from €1,000 to €5,000 anyone who “publicly defames the republic”, which includes the government, parliament, the courts and the army.

    I don’t have a disdain for ad homs if they actually come attached with something. Whether it’s an argument, explanation, rebuttal, literally anything. But if the ad hom is used as a replacement for substance then is it meaningless and fallacious, but also shows a great deal of intellectual laziness.

      Lol seethe harder like the little bitch you are

      Ah yes, that certainly “came attached with something” (whatever the fuck that means). There was no argument, no explanation, no rebuttal, no “literally anything”. You fail.

        You probably think this is a galaxy brain gotcha, when in reality it just shows you’re incapable of comprehend the concept of context. I gave an opinion. You can either agree or disagree. If you disagree then either state that you disagree and leave or explain your disagreement. Leaving ad hom and pretending it’s an explanation is literally the textbook example of why this fallacy is a fallacy. It doesn’t make you any less wrong or me any less right. It just showcases your inability to actually rebuttal what was said. With that being said, if some moron is clearly engaging in bad faith, then there’s nothing for me to explain. There’s literally no argument for me to counter, therfore, these morons just get a reflection of their engagement

          Dude, you didn’t need a meaningless wall of text to try to save face. We both know you’re the dumbass type who will never admit he was wrong and will argue forever. I’m blocking you to forestall that pathetic display on your part. You can thank me later.
