Slight correction. I said: “Saying that an argument is wrong because a stupid/bad person said it is of course fallacious, it’s an attempt to reverse stupidity to get intelligence.” I worded this sentence badly. I mean that stupid people saying things cannot make something false and usually when people commit this fallacy it’s because they are trying to say that the opposite of the “bad” point is true. This is why I said it’s an attempt to reverse stupidity to get intelligence.
Basically when we see “a stupid person said this” being advanced as proof that something is false, we can expect a reverse stupidity to get intelligence fallicy right after.
