Do not accuse another Freeper of telling a lie, it attributes motive, the intent to deceive. It is a form of "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.

OK. Though I was not saying it was intentional, but that the (often seen) statement was false, wrong, erroneous, a falsehood = a lie. But rules are rules.
