Thomas, if you are 16, you are not too much younger than I am, so please listen when I impart this little tidbit of wisdom unto you; sometimes it is both wise and classy to simply discontinue an argument, especially when it's been made clear that the other person or people are not changing their minds in your favor anytime soon, or when someone jumps in to defend you. I know how it feels sometimes online, where you think you MUST respond to EVERYTHING someone says to you, but it's a show of maturity to have the self-restraint and awareness to be able to say, "This thing I'm about to post adds nothing to this conversation and will just cause the other person to respond the same way they have been this entire argument, I'm just going to leave it here."
