Meaning
This reads as a defiant reversal of humiliation. The speaker can be taken to mean that attempts to diminish a person sometimes reveal, rather than erase, the worth beneath the attack, and it lands when someone is being undermined at work, online, or in public and has to hold onto their own sense of value.
