To get tricked into arguing.
Refers to a
Russian TV political pundit named
Igor Kravchenko. He would always argue incessantly with his guests,
even when they are in agreement with him. His guests often come on the show intending to express a fairly benign view, but Kravchenko always manages to pull them into an argument.
translated from Russian:
Guest: Education is one of the key building block of our future.
Kravchenko: Oh really? Then what about the construction workers that
don't have an education? Are you implying they
don't have a future? Are you saying that the only way you can be a part of the Russian future is to get educated.
Guest: Well, no, I'm just saying education is important.
Kravchenko: How important is it? Are we going to look down on those that
don't have an education? Are we going to treat them as lesser
people?
Guest: I just think
Russia would be better off if we had a better education system.
Kravchenko: Ah, so you admit it. You look down on the uneducated
people in our fine country. You see them and believe they would be better as academics.
Guest: I suppose it would be better if we had more academics in the country.
Kravchenko: WHAT????????????? You'
re a prejudicial pig.
LOL he'
