Fallacies aren't a calling card to catch people in a trap to make them look bad, but rather supposed to be guidelines to making a constructive argument or to show signs of a weak argument.

That's exactly what I was doing. I was pointing out that his argument was complete nonsense because he was dismissing the source because of where it's from and not bothering to address PJW's points as a result. That's a genetics fallacy. It's not some handicapped shaming strategy, that was not my intention at all.
But sure, if you'd rather I type out a paragraph rather than just link to the same general paragraph on another website to explain why his argument is bad (that does not by automatic extention make him an idiot), then by all means i'll stop.
And for the record, I don't regularly point out logical fallies in arguments. When I do point them out, it is to demonstrate flawed reasoning, not to call them an idiot. You can feel free to search through my posts from the last month or two and prove me wrong.
Also, seeing people point out logical fallacies in arguments is not a calling card to personally attack them for doing so.
