I will note that I only use the term when Peter repeats the same
falsehood multiple times ignoring the explaination of why it is wrong.

 But that's practically every one of his posts.

 

Such behavior proves that he isn't making an "honest mistake" but is
being willfully deceitful and ignoring the truth.

 Yes, but we all know that by now.  Continually repeating that fact in
virtually all of your posts distracts from your own factual arguments.
I think it makes you look a bit like a troll, particularly to newcomers.
 If you could cut down the volume to perhaps 20%, pointing out only the
most egregious examples of lying, the effect would be magnified, not
diminished.

 

I offered to stop using the term if he will stop just repeating his
statements without trying to defend them, but maybe he is honest enough
to know that he couldn't keep that promise, since he CAN'T defend his
statements, since he just doesn't know the basics to try to break his
statements down finer to something that explains them (without totally
proving them wrong)

 Yes.  But please consider what I've written above.  Thanks!
