Speaking as someone who used to (cringe) hold some exclusionary views, there will unfortunately always be someone who responds to your identity, the way you talk about yourself, or how you define your own relationships with "you can't do that" and the 100% best thing you can do for yourself most of the time is to just... tell them to fuck off, and go do whatever. Maybe they learn, grow, and get over themselves; maybe they don't. But it's not your problem.
Yeah you can engage if you've got the time and energy, but there's a high chance they've already set themselves up to think whatever they think based on their own bullshit. If they're at all receptive to new information, then that's great, but don't feel pressure to change everyone's mind. Sometimes being alive a few more years will fix them on its own. Some of us get older and simultaneously get tired of our own shit. But finding the motivation and reason to change is always on them, not the people they're hurting by being ignorant and unkind.
One of the other things that shifted my views was the recognition that my being exclusionary was not stopping anyone from doing the things that I didn't like. At some point you (hopefully) have to realize the world doesn't stop for you, and you see people you disagreed with thriving and giving zero fucks about your shit takes. If you have any sense at all their joy is humbling (and guess what, you will feel a lot less garbage as a person when you allow their joy to be contageous).

talking to people while holding a beverage is awesome because you don't have to know what to do with your hands and when you don't know what to do with your face you can just take a sip
