It is easy for sweeping statments to cause angry reactions ...

... retaliating in kind - letting the anger cause us to make counter-generalizations about the topic at hand, or about the person, just perpetuates the cycle. Let something positive emerge, even if is is but a gentle inner smile, an armor that protects letting us do the things that are needed. Sometimes, actually quite a few sometimes, the evidence has to prove the truth, not just the words.
