No way, dude. The best way to deal with people like this is to say, "Yeah" and walk the fuck away. You won't change anyone's mind about anything and engaging will only make things worse.

You can be right, or you can be happy. Pick one.

Sometimes it isn't for that person, but the other people around them. I'll argue with racists and anti-LGBTQ people online, not as an expectation that those mouth breathing chuds will change, but rather so the targeted groups know they are not alone.
