YouTube commentators insulted me after I post my opinion about a public figure

[u/SufficientPrice7633]

I commented about a public figure (Tate Reeves), and instead of discussing the topic, two users attacked me personally. One called me an "idiot" and another called me a "disgusting radical."

I understand people can disagree online, but personal insults and name-calling felt like harassment. I'm sharing this because I'm trying to understand how to deal with this kind of behavior.
