Why does he hate sarcasm? I haven't read all of his works, but from what I have it seems like the biggest (and most frequent) insult he throws out is "he is playing the fool/buffoon!"

Forgive my almost anti-intellectual analysis of Dostoevsky, but it seems to me that anyone who isn't completely serious in conversation at all times is an idiot to Fyodor. Why?
