Being too dense to see the point isn’t making you look very good, son.

I see your point very well and at least I now know what I'm dealing with.

And don't call me son, I'm not your son.

“I see your point very well and at least I now know what I’m dealing with.”

Yes. Someone with a better grasp of both history and the English language.

“With what pretense of fairness, is is said, can you Americans object to the secession of the Southern States when your nation was founded on secession from the British Empire?” - Cornhill Magazine, “The Dissolution of the Union,” 1861.

“And don’t call me son, I’m not your son.”

This is why I think you have trouble with American English. In this context, I was being condescending.
