I would absolutely rather fall victim to a debate fallacy rather than blatant bigotry. The original commentor is absolutely a bigot by their own admission, however my logical extension of their broadcasting their own bigotry doesn’t necessarily fall into an ad hominem attack. All I ever said was that the original commentor was arguing in bad faith.
You absolutely did fall into an ad hominem attack by putting words in my mouth. I never attempted to negate their assertion, address their assertion, or even summarize their assertion. I simply said their assertion was made in bad faith.

And we can probably agree to disagree on that. -Cheers and enjoy your Thanksgiving (if US based of course)
