    No, calling someone a liar is making an assumption about their intentions, which, in most cases, you do not know.

    Sure, when you hear false statements from a public figure all the time, like Trump for example, you can eventually have enough data to conclude that he is a liar. Do you have that kind of data on the commenter you replied to? No? Well, then it is more appropriate to assume they are mistaken. At least in English, calling someone a liar is very, very aggressive.

      Hey man, believe whatever you want and discuss however you please.

      I disagree with what you’re saying and stand by my previous assertions.

      Have a nice day.
