Usually the kind of responses you receive reflects the manner in which you express/present your viewpoints...
For example, if you're coming across as pushy that may stir up uncomfortable feelings within the other person which causes them to react in a defensive manner...However, if you're presenting your viewpoint in a neutral manner and have information to share without preaching to other people, you are more likely to receive positive or neutral feedback in return...
If you are not being preachy and still receive negative arguments that tells me something becomes stirred within the other person causing them to react defensively...That is their problem/issue to deal with and not yours...
As Rah nam stated, sometimes it's best to let things be. Say what you feel like you need to say then let it rest...
