The word "lie" attributes motive, the intent to deceive. It is therefore "making it personal."

Words such as "false" "wrong" "error" do not attribute motive.

Discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal.

Whab about persist falsehoods in the face of clear evidence? At what point does it become obvious that a lie is being told? When does that type of vicious, nasty behavior get stopped?
