Try not to react:
"You are racist."
"You hate people/are selfish."
"You whine too much."
"You think that people are generally stupid, but that you are exceptional."
"Building a mosque near ground zero is important."
"You can never be more than a hick."
You'll always be [insert negative character trait].
In what way does asking or asserting these statements ever serve to start a conversation? Assuming the purpose is not to start a conversation, but only to show someone you disagree with them/their viewpoint, what is the point in doing so? What does it provide the producer of such statements? Why does it matter?
