I can tell whether you've put any thought into your arguments or not, and when your argument consists of calling the other person a doormat, I can tell that required no thought at all and can be dismissed without consideration.

I know a number of people who are smarter than I am. I have not seen the slightest evidence that you are one of them, or that you are anywhere near my level. I think the old dictum, ‘Show your work,’ applies here.

My argument is that Andersson could have done better by the Flames, despite insisting he did everything he could, without (fairly) acknowledging he is really only out for himself, as is his right. You could have engaged with that, instead of being a ####.
Andersson was under no obligation to ‘do better by the Flames’, or to acknowledge that he ‘is really only out for himself’. Apparently you want him to apologize to you for doing business in a businesslike way, instead of pretending that he's a member of your family, or has some similar relationship whereby he owes you special courtesy.

Your argument, in essence, is that your feelings are hurt because Andersson did not meet your unreasonable expectations. That isn't an argument worth engaging with – especially when you yourself were, as you put it, ‘being a ####’ to everyone who disagrees with you.
