The attack on motivations

Your bending of their words intended target
to suit your own agenda
is likely motivated by
some deep seated angst and self loathing.

The above was the initial response to a column by Jim Lobe.
The point is by attacking Lobe’s motivations, without giving the slightest reason,
the attacker avoids the need to address the substantive point Lobe had made.
(The “self loathing” charge, by the way, is because Lobe is Jewish.)
