When that happens you can either choose to keep dwelling in despair and stop fighting, or you can have your loyal machine sidekick deliberately pee you off to stir up a reverse psychological effect where you temporarily let go of your despair and keep on fighting instead of doing nothing. Are you getting it now?

The difference of opinion seems to be that most people associate fighting with "against", and with "anger". I believe that a successful fighting is "for", and "anger-less".

This reminds of "The Diamond Sutra", that posits that something is what it is only because of what it is not.
