Possibly, but I suspect it's more commonly used to misrepresent another person's views when promoting one's own views. It's easy; twist another person's words into a ridiculous viewpoint that's easy to attack, then attack the ridiculous viewpoint instead of the original, rationally defendable point. It works when trying to persuade observers with very limited training in logic.

It is a tactic you use all the time.

This is certainly what I typically do when dealing with the standard CUK fodder.

So you're saying he NEVER uses any other tactic, are you?

[vetran]

Oh you're here too! I'd forgotten!

Darmstadt said we should stop using big words!

why you two having problems with them?

[DodgyAgent]

On a serious note you are right because I was lazily making a sweeping statement that could be interpreted as exaggeration.

A conversation about Farage’s discomfort, sitting in a train carriage in which nobody else spoke English, was surreal.

Actually was amused today, walking about West Drayton and there was a builder trying to work out how to get a 25KG bag of sand into a plastic tub/bucket that it was too small for it. Proper builder with his cleavage showing and sealant splashed clothes, fag out of the corner of his mouth. Only thing he was missing was a copy of the Sun & a mug of tea. All of this was out of the corner of my eye I sort of discounted it as normal.

Then he started swearing at the bucket in Eastern European. I nearly started laughing at the incongruity of it.

So what's the Polish, or whatever, for F* bucket? That's an idea, if we all learnt to swear in an obscure language we could do it whenever we felt like without offending anyone.
