ad hominem means against the man. My attacks are against the ideology. That you cannot differentiate and think it is all about you is but another aspect of this. In your case it is so deeply ingrained you seem unable to function even slightly outside of it.
Like when you say you will let it pass without further comment, after you get your dig in! Mighty big of you. Kind of thing one would do if they were virtue signaling (you're offensive, but look how good I am!) or narcissistic (world revolves around you) or then again it could all be just your garden variety lack of reasoning and reading skills. Everything in the marketplace is after all competing with everything else. So this adds nothing. Less than nothing, actually, since you water it down with "potentially".
Remember I did ask you to stop. If you keep getting beat up, maybe just stay down.
