Wasn’t exactly where I thought this argument might be going…. but it’ll do...

What argument? Your opponent was just throwing out logical fallacies (e.g. strawmen and some form of ad absurdum). You have to spend all your time saying "that's not what I said", instead of arguing the point. Which is pointless. If someone can't argue honestly, then you're just banging your head against a wall. Which is why I've mostly disengaged.
