but when you are presented with a site that purports to fact-check Paul Krugman, you refuse to read it at all, and tell RC "Looks like you are cribbing from someone else's work". It's called citation, John. Maybe the site did a bang-up job of fact-checking Krugman. How do you know it didn't if you won't bother to even read some of it?

This is one of the key methods of the "flailing cockroach" style of debate.

If unable to counter - 1)dishonestly parse in order to 2)change topic so one can 3)accuse poster of lacking "nuance", displaying "bad form", "cribbing" etc...

It is a quite simple form of rationalization. Particularly for someone has already rationalized their own status as an uber member of the ruling elite.
