Choosing to opt out from a generally toxic and/or useless conversation can speak volumes to one's integrity more than having the last word would.

One thing I've learned as a Filipina American in corporate life is to speak in my soft voice and frame my solutions as questions. If I start strong with a solution to deaf ears, any point after that is seen as defensive. This isn't true in all cases, but it makes every day fucking exhausting.
