Why do you think some people resort to name calling when you’re having a discussion and it’s not going their way?

It's the same thing you see in relationships...The vast majority of people simply do not know how to argue productively, it's not something that's really taught anywhere unless you were some debate nerd, Poindexter 😛 anyway to them getting the other person to shut down is tantamount to 'winning' and some will do so by any means necessary
