I agree that using "civilization" shows her lack of class.Sin Hombre wrote: ↑Fri Feb 16, 2024 2:20 amThis is the point. It is quite ridiculous coming from a war mongering nation with little to no historical civilizational contributions. And when you add her lack of achievement in tennis, it comes off as badly as when RamK acts like a petulant child on court.
It is not ad-hominem to discuss someone like this, I also believe she lives in Paris which says a lot about her shallowness.
The definition of ad hominem is to discuss the writer and not to debate the content of the piece. It is ad hominem to the T by definition. If you want, I can quote a definition and quote your post above but being lazy.
And, why is living in Paris shallow? A lot of people live in a lot of places they are not born in. In fact, zealous nationalism is a curse that causes wars and deaths of a lot of people that is useless and can be avoided.
And, once again saying that Serbia has no historical civilizational contributions is nonsense just like saying the world population is not increasing is flat out wrong. Human beings have been there for a long time. For example, check out the Starčevo and Vinča cultures in about 6500 B.C. They are too close to Rome and Greece, etc. and too close to Africa for there not being human beings and for them not having developed some culture at that time.
