Answer:

When someone distorts another's view so that it is easy to attack, we call that the ad hominem fallacy

Explanation:

In Latin, ad hominem means argument against the person. It is a fallacy identified when someone seeks to deny a proposition with criticism of its author rather than its content. The fallacy occurs because it concludes about the value of the proposition without examining its content.
