This technique is called an "accusation audit" and is from the Black Swan group. While it sounds bad, and should be used after other techniques, it absolutely puts a fine point on what the person is doing. Pretending that the other person is reasonable (when that is not the case) is actually a quite sound strategy, but it requires confidence and acting with higher status than some people can pull off. | |

"Stop acting whatever" comes across as hostile. Removing it makes the answer something I could up-vote (and others would be less likely to down-vote).
