badgenome, 80% of what you do is create a caricature of whoever you're debating and mock it. That's funny when you're being funny, but when you're not joking it stops working.

I don't agree. I think partisanship has driven people to actually become caricatures of their ideologies. The primary driving force in partisan politics seems to be spite, and as partisans increasingly define themselves more by what they are not rather than by what they are, they come to resemble what the other side thinks them to be rather than whatever it is they originally were.

When someone accuses me of arguing in bad faith because everything I say is a smokescreen for the fact that I really just want people to starve to death, I'm at a loss as to why you think he doesn't deserve to be mocked.

RH gave a pretty good answer to this, but another answer would be that the accusation you claim others have made of you is no more ridiculous than your own smears of others.
