Hitlers Book - Mein Kampf

At the beginning of chapter 8 of Hitler's book, he stated, "There are some truths, which are so obvious that for this very reason they are not seen or at least not recognized by ordinary people." By this, he meant that sometimes the truth is so painfully obvious and it is just right there, and they are everyday things that people don't pay attention to. By stating this quote, he is claiming that these people are ordinary people and that ordinary people are stupid but he isn't because he is the only one smart enough to see them, and it completely distracts us from the real argument which is about the obvious truths. These are called Ad Hominems.
