When a fool presents an argument to you, don’t argue. Else how will they know who is the fool and who is the wise, if you’re both arguing?
God is your defense, let him fight your battle. Selah

Amen, brother Gabriel. Not every idiot deserves an answer. Otherwise, the devil will have us flustered all day fighting battles that aren’t ours.
A favorite quote of mine (I forgot who said it) is: “Say you were wrong. Go your quiet way. Christ is the judge, not they. Fear not. Be strong.” I don’t take this to mean that we should cave in to others on important issues. It’s about not putting wind in an argumentative person’s sails. “Okay, whatever you say, The sky is purple today. I’m moving along now.”
I’m writing a second post in a comment here, but you’ve touched a nerve. True meekness in NOT weakness.
Blessings.

instead of turning left or right, we hear the Voice of the True Shepherd, the Lamb of God, saying, “Come up here!” there is the world’s triangle: left versus right on the bottom and the hidden capstone of lucifer at the apex, but the Trinity is not a triangle but our new life in Christ, with Father, Son and Spirit of God! thank you Jesus for the finished work of the Cross! all thanks and honor and glory to God our Eternal Heavenly Father!

So true! Jesus Christ when questioned didn’t answer back. He is the perfect example for us all. (Be still and know that I am God.) Let the Holy Spirit be your guide.
