>From Wikipedia:
An *ad hominem* (Latin <https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin> for "to the
man" or "to the person"[1]
<https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hominem#cite_note-1>), short for
*argumentum
ad hominem*, means responding to arguments by attacking a person's
character, rather than addressing the content of their arguments.

This is exactly what Jorge did because instead of addressing the matter at
hand he made attacks against my character not addressing the content of the
argument.

Mind you if you look to the list everyone was upset so no of course he not
discuss that content but launched into ad hominem.

I even politely sent him a private email and his response there was very
rude too.
