"What a load of crap" is clearly directed at your statement and not at you. The word "what" is a stand-in for the premise "[duck duck's] facts... are only reinforced when it results in replies of emotional outbursts rather than logic." Merc is indicating that he disagrees with that statement.
If his statement were directed at you, it would read something like: "tw is a load of crap when he says..."
However, tw, when you say "As usual, TheMercenary has nothing to say other than insulting emotions."
That is directed specifically at Merc, and not at his argument, which is that your argument "is a load of crap".
