I'm very familiar with this style. I consider it a sign of the sheer desperation of apologetics.

Retreating into solipsism, treating your opponent's intellectual honesty as a weakness and playing dumb word games is a sure sign that you've got nothing left of substance.

And always they argue for a purely deistic God and never bother explaining how this abstract, hands-off creator suddenly becomes their favourite cartoon character God. Actual deists are not normally so obsessed with trying to convince people.

Exactly. Just where does their God fit in lol?? Does he manifest in reality? Such as answering prayers or whatever? If yes then by definition he must be demonstrable. So then...demonstrate. If no, then their God is completely indistinguishable from something that does not exist.
