Some people disagree with me and hit me with a confident “but that’s just your opinion” (which drives me absolutely insane, what can you even do here?)
You could try pointing out that it’s an opinion about the subject, which isn’t related to an opinion about your opinion about the subject, with only the latter being brought up by that argument.
The relevant skill is focusing on a specific topic and not lumping everything in a single connotational soup. I believe it’s important to have a clear understanding of specific reasons why even the most abysmal errors are not correct arguments.
