I do too. They are low-IQ and anti-intellectual attempts to derail conversations by just turning it into a personal attack. Smarter idiots have developed these tactics in the past.
> and generally the jewish twisting and weaponizing of language, I suppose.
Yes. People have to be very mindful of their linguistic tactics. There are many, and this is one of them. These labels are like packed ideas. "Racist" doesn't just mean you "hate" niggers and subhumans, it also implies low intelligence, low education, backwards mindset, emotionality (thus irrationality), superficiality, etc. Being accused of being "racist" is an accusation of multiple things at once. Sometimes people who try to claim how they are "not racist" are actually trying to argue that their views are rational.
One way to turn it into ridiculousness is to double down. "Not only am I racist, I am high ranked racist even, grandmaster level." Another is to say that at least you are based in facts and science, while they are driven by ideological nonsense. Or turn the ad hominem around - say that person is a fragile anti-intellectual, someone who chose to be an idiot by adhering to an insane ideology like an acolyte. Or ask "so what's the problem about being [label]?" Or just say "yeah, maybe" - and dismiss it quickly, and focus on what you want to say. Or ignore it completely.
Most people are busy defending themselves from these labels, which is exactly what it is meant to achieve. Anything else is better than that.
