Logical Fallacies

Ad Hominem

Ad Homniem (Latin for to the person) generally refers to making an argument based on one's character rather than their opinions or statements.[1] [2] Contrary to how the fallacy is usually understood, this isn't merely calling someone names or insulting them. It also doesn't necessary have to include these actions and actually comes in many different varieties. These include: Tu quoque, Guilt by Association, and Bulverism.

Given the type of community that surrounds Chris, one that mostly comprises of gossip and being critical of others, you are bound to find this fallacy pop up A LOT. Therefore, when making changes on this wiki, it is especially crucial to spot it when someone makes a claim about Chris or any of his orbiters.
