With all due respect......

The use of the phrase “with all due respect“ conveys very little respect. It is condescending at best and downright insulting at its worst.  The real message is ,“with all due respect, which is absolutely none, I think you are an asshole”. With all due respect, the phrase is to be avoided at all costs.
