How do you deal with a person who throws a tantrum over a perceived slight and stays extremely upset when you come to them and say "I didn't mean to upset you and what you think I think of you I literally do not think"

Let them cool off. Then if you want, you can revisit the topic in a couple of days and make your case without judging them, saying "you" language, and take responsibility for what you say (within reason). Don't coddle or be tactless. Remember their feelings are valid too.

If they pull this shit all the time though it might be time to drop them.

Well, I wouldn't phrase it that confusingly, since the person already has a problem with interpretation. I'd just say there was a misunderstanding, I do not think __________. I'm sorry it upset you, but I think we had a bad case of crossed wires here."

If this is a regular occurrence, I would try to minimize this person's presence in my life as much as possible. If it's a co-worker or family member, minimize and keep interactions short. If it's a friend, cut them loose and find people who don't do this.
