Why do you think some people resort to name calling when you’re having a discussion and it’s not going their way?
Immaturity. An absence of knowledge in anything other than their specialised subject. Being unable to even contemplate that they could be wrong. The inability to form their thoughts into a cohesive structure to counter an argument. Feeling inadequate, inarticulate and/or belittled. Fear of being ridiculed. A general lack of empathy.
