No, no, you see, you need to be civil to me. I can be as toxic and condescending as I wish, because I, as an enlightened liberal, am correct in all things and therefore the burden of civility falls onto you. You must be civil to me at all times, using rules that I will not specify and will change arbitrarily as the discussion goes on so I always have an emergency exit from the conversation when I'm backed into a corner. I'm a wonderful person to spend time interacting with.
