We're both making the same point. People oversimplify the situation constantly, which communicates that the person is getting information from very limited sources. It's not an ad hom to suggest that a lack of education can lead to an incomplete knowledge of a subject. Asking for a better supported argument, made from a solid understanding of the subject, is a part of the burden of proof.
