There is no point arguing with people unwilling to engage because their minds are made up...

I agree. No point in arguing with you. You start from a premise and after that that's it.
You can't require that people accept that you're right as a precondition for arguing with them. If you want to argue that porn perverts sexuality, you can't demand that your opponent acknowledge that their sexuality has been perverted by porn. You wouldn't take that structure seriously in any other context.
Apparently they can. :) Life doesn't work this way though.
