"They don't want people like me on board."

Yeah, I know what you mean about them. You don't really disagree with them in principle, just in the details. It's like you want to meet them half-way, it's the reasonable, fair, LIBERAL thing to do, right?

But with them, its always their way or the highway. They seem to be unable to distinguish between cooperation and appeasement, between working together and complete surrender. And if you concede any point to them, they perceive it as cowardice or weakness, not open-mindedness. Agreement on any issue is not enough, they want uncritical acceptance of everything.

It's like..., like, they are just...well, there just is no other word for it: pricks.
