Are you familiar with the term argumentum ad hominem, or ad hominem for short? It is a term that refers to several types of arguments, most of which are fallacious [based on a mistaken belief]. Typically this term refers to a rhetorical strategy where the speaker attacks the character, motive, or some other attribute of the person making an argument rather than attacking the substance of the argument itself. This avoids genuine debate by creating a diversion to some irrelevant but often highly charged issue. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hominem Yes
