Calling each other idiots has zero effect on the legitimacy of the arguments involved. Hell, on this site, most of the time there aren't even any arguments involved. One has to be careful not to make the mistake OP makes by assuming everybody who calls anybody else an idiot must therefore be equally culpable. That necessitates the premise that the world (or at least this site) has no genuine idiots, or that, however pointlessly argumentative or stupid someone is, you should never call them an idiot. I don't agree. If someone -- as often happens to me -- hijacks your debate in order to use it as a platform to make personal attacks against you, then that person is an idiot and needs to be banned.
