Völlig bescheuerte Wortverdreherei. It's never enough, right? That final arrow, that last knife, it needs to be thrown at the others back, right? Always, right? and if he complains, it is his fault that he is so "sensible" and lacks self-control, right?
One needs to be only rude enough oneself, then the rest of the world appears as too "sensible".
Du bist vielleicht ein hinterhältiges Süßchen.

You also lose out on the opportunity to learn something because, no matter how foolish a person may appear to you, there is the possibility that they will make a point that you have never considered.

At some point, that becomes simply uneconomic, and the ratio between what you maybe, eventually, in rare events, may gain from accepting yourself getting attacked, namecalled, drawn into mudthrowing time and again simply does not calculate well anymore.

Obviously, this is all my opinion and is predicated upon having an open mind.

Translates into: I take total freedom to say whatever I want, I label it my opinion and by that I expect not any criticism for it, for it is my "
OPINION". No matter wether it really is, or not.
I can live with people's opinion different from mine. I am also clever enough to realise when they just instrumentalise the term and the freedom of speech for very different purposes than just to voice their "opinion" - for example for getting in that last blow and hoping to get away without punishment.
Whatever. Bye.
