I use "are you calling me a liar?" which is probably more effective in the UK than the US.
Ugh I HATE that phrase. I’m American and any time someone says that to me I just want to reply “no, I just think you are ignorant” but I know that would just get me punched.
I've also heard people use it who weren't lying, they were simply incorrect, and conflating those two concepts.
Sometimes they're even just mistaken.
Yeah, absolutely. Then they escalate from "innocent mistake" to "accusatory" on a dime.
