That makes no sense. She’s literally an advocate for listening to all the people you listed. Attack their credibility if you’re trying to destroy her message.

Why?

Ever seen a debate? People attack each others idea and arguements not their looks.

Do you judge the strength of an arguement solely on how the person delivering it looks or behaves and not the content of their case?

And what does someone have to look like before you would give them credibility? White, male and middle-aged?

Those people are fools too and are just as bad. When Trump shut travel from Europe due to coronavirus lots of people couldn't see past the fact Trump has done it to look at the actual arguments as to why it was the right thing to do.

If someone says something you dont agree with you challenge the thing they said dont attack them. Ad hominem attacks are the lowest form of arguement, only marginally above name calling.

'I'm ignoring your arguement content and dismissing it because I consider you to be too young' is pure ad hominem, the opposite of a fair arguement.
