Not including the racist discrimination example, I'm not sure that this is a bad problem. I believe there is a tendency for us to leave the schooling system and start viewing interviews as though they were our new exams, where failure is your own fault. I argue that interviews are the starting point of a new relationship, so the closest analogy is actually a date. If you're on a date and express your values and the other person rejects you for it, it simply means you don't make a good relationship - even if it's just because the other person has unfair demands.

So don't project programming ideals you don't believe in. If they can't reconcile different opinions, it's their problem. You won't have the conviction or experience to do it convincingly anyway.

And if they don't like you asking questions, you've really dodged a bullet!
