Simplified Meaning:

When people can't win an argument, they often start saying bad things about the other person instead of sticking to the topic. It's like if two kids are arguing about whose toy is better. If one kid realizes they can't convince the other, they might start calling them names or saying they're not smart. This doesn't help solve the argument, but it shows that one of them is just trying to hurt the other because they don't know what else to do. In grown-up situations, this happens too. For example, during elections, if a politician can't win based on their ideas and plans, they might try to make the other candidate look bad by spreading lies or exaggerating their mistakes. It teaches us that when someone starts attacking a person's character instead of their ideas, it usually means they don't have strong arguments. So, if you find yourself in a debate, remember to stay focused on the issue, not on attacking the person, because that shows real strength and respect.
