A break down in negotiations
“How can I negotiate with that?!
You want to destroy life to ‘gratify yourself.’
You want to make people completely subject to you,
and you call this "right."
You want to pretend you’re listening, when you’re only talking.
You want to dominate other people’s views, in effect saying; “screw you,”
and you claim in all this; your ‘righteousness.’
“Come back when your ears and mouth are working properly,
I do not want to negotiate with you.
Get out of my sight!”
