      So if he phrased it as “The kind of person who would ask a question like this is a dumbass” not be immature name calling? Becuase that’d successfully not cross this weird line in the sand you’ve drawn

        I think it would just be a subjective opinion at that point.

        And it’s not my line in the sand, but the actual definition:

        Name-calling is a form of argument in which insulting or demeaning labels are directed at an individual or group.

          Someone who wouldnt realise that that definition applies to both insults isnt the greatest at reading comprehension
