Humour does not have to be at the expense of other
people. Especially humor at the expense of people who happen not to
share your views really looks like something with an agenda.
I suppose you take your position so seriously that any tool to
demolish your opposition is acceptable, but this kind of scorched
earth tactics do not leave things amenable to people finding it
pleasant to work with you.
However, I am in no position to tell you how to conduct
yourself, and thus, after stating that these little sarcastic jibes
of yours do have an affect, I am done.
