Reasonable people make the mistake of thinking that everyone on Twitter is reasonable. That's why they fall into the trap of arguing with people, wondering why they can't see sense. Do you walk into a market and start /sustain conversations with everyone?
When a stranger walks up to your car window and starts telling you your choice of music is crap, do you stand in traffic arguing with that person?
When your child's mate comes to your front door and starts shouting madly that you know nothing at all about something you're an expert in , do you try to reason with them?
When someone who is obviously drunk taps you on the shoulder to tell you that they don't like your outfit, do you stand and dialogue with that person?
Twitter is a massive market. Not everyone who seeks your attention needs to be given it. Not everyone will agree with you. Not everyone will understand you. Stop being shocked that there are ignoramuses /trolls/backstabbers/ silly buggers here. It's the way of the world.
