What does /pol/ consider the worst or most overused ad hominems in political discussions ?
For me it'd have to be racist/sexist etc from leftists or paid russian troll/ 50 Cent.

Besides racist, the line: You're on the wrong side of history!
As if history is a static thing that freezes itself when it reaches a moral climate that confirms a liberals bias.

Something like you can't tell me what to do you don't speak for everyone.

Appeals to hypocrisy are a form of the ad hominem fallacy, but most people don't seem to realize it.

>You say that X is good! But you did Y! Therefore, X is bad!

Actually, the conclusion does not follow from the premises. X might be great, Y might suck, and people have their own motivations for doing things. An abstract argument does not rest on personal behavior.

I'm aware that Imgur.com will stop allowing adult images since 15th of May. I'm taking actions to backup as much data as possible.
