I totally disagree. (1) You don't have a constitutional right to friendliness; (2) You do have a right to determine your acceptance others' private behavior, and (3) Refusing to be cordial is not a verbal assault.
It's fascinating to me that the side of the board that would be generally anti-hypocrisy and sees etiquette as essentially hypocritical in nature (that is, everyone but me and DS) is saying that one should fake a feeling of bonhomie that isn't felt --- why, because it's wrong to judge others?
