An argument about an argument, the decision to argue, or about the fact another argument was had.

normally occurs as a gaslighting technique where one person starts an argument with an opinion or a hot take, then gets upset when someone responds to their opinion with their own opinion and blames fact and argument started entirely on one party, making their opposition appear more hostile and argumentative then they actually are.

Idiot Argument:

Person 1: Well, I think the Wii is better than the Xbox 360 because...

Idiot: NO! NO! Shut the hell up. I said the Xbox 360 is better. NO! NO! Insert random group here says its better! NO! I'm right. Your wrong. Shut the hell up.
