fight me

Dare to brawl

Fight me is a playful challenge daring someone to disagree with a stated opinion, usually one the speaker knows is controversial or unconventional.

The phrase mimics aggressive confrontation but signals the speaker won't actually defend the position seriously—it's more swagger than invitation: Pineapple belongs on pizza. Fight me.
