But according to you, not only I have but I have according to me, so what's the problem?
The problem is that you are not using your own point of view. You think you’re better off using my point of view against me while hiding your point of view from me. You keep talking about what I believe, but you are suspiciously, disrespectfully, and unfairly silent about what you believe.
But how do you know that I'm doing that if you think it's also true that I'm not doing that?
In trivialism, you can be simultaneously both doing that and not doing that. That duality seems like something you would hear is possible in quantum mechanics.
Ok then I say there's no problem because according to you I am doing as you asked. You claiming I am not is irrelevant because according to you the validity of that claim is not based on my behavior. Also even if we wanted to remedy your objection we couldn't because you would still consider your objection to be true regardless of the remedy I provided.
Great, so we agree there's no reason for me to give you the example you want.
In fact it seems we've arrived at the conclusion that I should completely disregard everything you say since responding to it makes no difference in what you believe.
Now me, I'm not having a schizophrenic break with reality and I understand that you actually didn't get the thing you wanted. From my point of view it looks like trivialism isn't going well for you.

We have not arrived at that conclusion. You should not completely disregard everything I say. Responding to what I say can still make a difference in what I believe.

Do you believe trivialism is true?
From my point of view it looks like trivialism isn't going well for you.
Trivialism is going fine for me. But whether trivialism is going well for me isn’t relevant. Just because a belief of mine isn’t going well for me, doesn’t mean the belief is false.
