    Tu quoque argument → Ad hominem argument

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?

    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    A tu quoque argument and a straw man argument can each sidestep an examination of the issue. The former appeals to the other person’s conduct. The latter distorts the position being challenged.
