Passive aggressive relates to agreeing to something then simply not following through. It is typically (and originally) related to orders.
The INT version is... "I respect your view" but then the delivery, the attitude, the word choice, the inflection is "You are an idiot, my way is right". It is inherently passive by nature, but still extremely sabotaging otherwise.
It's the equivalent of a back handed compliment like "That dress makes you look less fat".
