The common meaning of the term [lie] is
noun
(1) a false statement made with deliberate intent to deceive;
an intentional untruth.
verb (used without object)
(1) to speak falsely or utter untruth knowingly, as with
intent to deceive. Synonyms: fib, prevaricate
When Richard calls people liars and does not mean they have any
intent to deceive this makes Richard a liar because Richard knows
that people will be lead to believe that he is using the common
definition that requires an intent to deceive.
https://www.dictionary.com/browse/lie
Except that isn't the only definition, so you are JUST LYING Again.
I am using:
lie noun(2)
1 b: an untrue or inaccurate statement that may or may not be believed true by the speaker or writer
From
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/lie#dictionary-entry-3Remember in general English, the speaker gets to use the words in the way they want to.
This has been explained to you, so your calling be a liar for calling you a liar is a lie by even YOUR definition, since you have known that your definition isn't the one I am using.
Note, even legally, your definition doesn't hold, as a statement done with reckless disreguard for the truth, so even if they don't "beleive" they are wrong, but a normal competent person would see the error, makes it legally a lie
Note also, even your own source defends me, as it says:
3: an inaccurate or untrue statement; falsehood:
And that describes your statements, your ignorant denial of the truth doesn't sheild your statements from being lies.
So, you are AGAIN just proven to be a liar that is trying to deceive people with slanted definitions.
