It really depends on whom and what I am contending with.

If it someone that cannot be trusted or is irretrievably indoctrinated, I respond by branding accusations such as "racist" or "nazi" etc as name-calling, that name-calling does not work with me.

If I am interacting someone who seems like they can be reasoned with, or I am interacting anonymously on the internet, my refrain is usually that whether something is racist or not does not matter, what matters is whether my contention is true or not. A really flippant line is "truth is racist" or "truth is anti-Semitic."
