I was just felt sick after a near tiff with a fellow work colleague. I was talking about Noam Chomsky and the Vietnam war.
Then one fellow asserts that communism is where all people are 'equal while some are more equal than others'. I was about to say that's aristocracy, not communism, but he spoke again by saying I shoudn't 'argue' with him and 'you're not going to get me that way'.
What the hell? He didn't give me a chance to respond! There was no argument, he was just ramming his opinion down on me and not let me speak back.
But I didn't say anything as he walked away, because I knew I couldn't have a calm and collective discussion with him. He was obviously the kind of guy who doesn't want to hear other person's opinion.
It's bloddy annoying when you answer a question, and the other person remarks "don't argue with me!" If you ask a question it's damned unfair to compalin and blast 'argue' just because you don't like the answer. The morons!
