You would benefit from being specific when making a comment where your exact words are wholesale endorsement of someone's worldview. Turning around and immediately changing the entire thesis of your comment makes it seem like your goal was to be contrarian rather than add to the discussion.

A. "Don't surround yourself with extremists.

I'd surround myself with extreme centrists instead"

B. "That is shallow"

You. "They see modern issues better than you. (...)"

You may want to rethink how you provide endorsement in general, if someone pointing out how shallow of a belief something that is inarguably shallow encourages you to claim that other someone, off of a single comment, literally sees the world better.

Have a good one.
