Maybe we should try to explain to him how he is hurting everyone. The Klei Yokor on admonishing each other in Parahas Kedoshim brings a mashel from the midrash where one is travelling on a ship and starts boring a hole under his seat. When the captain questiions him, he says, what do you care what I do under my seat? The Zohar Hakadash says in Parashas Terumah says that through his speech he creates a separation and drives Hashem out who only stays if there is unity.
