Every time you interact with someone you should give them a base level of respect. How they respond determines the amount of respect you continue to proceed with.

      So if a stranger disrespects me, I should disrespect them more?

      Sounds like a mutual self destructive relationship if you ask me. Someone either has to be the better person, or just walk away.

      I disagree with you that there is a minimum anyone deserves.

      Past a certain point you are disrespecting yourself to allow them to be in your presence or have any contact with you.
