Well obviously I wouldn't say I agree with literally telling anyone to "f*ck off" if they refuse to leave you alone, but I do agree in principle to be stern at that point.

But that's likely because you think swearing is bad. I personally think it's silly to be concerned about "bad" words.

Well, kind of. Not that any particular word is inherently "bad" in and of itself, it's just not how I would personally choose to address someone. Ideally, anyway. Not saying I never have.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
