Being called out for making a false or exaggerated statement isn't an

Calling out bull#### for being bull#### is not an insult, it's just the truth. That a lot of the bull#### tends to be "right wing" doesn't make the response "a left-wing fire hose of invective": it's merely the fire hose of reality dousing the flames of nonsense.
