2. What type of fallacy is represented by the passage below? The poem "Cautionary Tale of Girls and Birds of Prey" is not worth reading. The author clearly is a sick and morbid person who likes to write about death.

Ad hominem attack

Explanation:

A logical fallacy is a flaw in reasoning.

Ad hominem (literally translated as to the person) is a type of logical fallacy in which a person criticizes or attacks another person, rather than what they are saying. Here, the speaker doesn't critize the mentioned poem. They don't give explanations about why the poem is not good. They simply attack the writer, stating that they are a sick and morbid person. That is not a valid reason as to why someone shouldn't read a poem.
