It's not polite to be condescending.

My comment was genuine. It is a genuine shame someone states they despise me with little additional context, and as I said, it doesn’t bother me and I do wish them well. Where was the condescending? Am I supposed to have strong feelings? Am I supposed to lash out? No, all unnecessary. “Be conservative in what you do, be liberal in what you accept from others". They are simply at a different point in their journey than I am.

How else would you politely respond to someone who comments only “I know. I despise you”?
