Requesting a source is usually a low-effort escape. They don’t actually want to review your sources. They much prefer that you don’t provide a source, so that their comment appears to be the last word.
When you do provide sources, those sources seem to get disappeared very quickly. Almost as if the guy you were providing the source to reported it, instead of considering it.
Its generally faster to look up things yourself, than to wait for a reply from a stranger on the internet. Everyone online knows how to look things up, so requesting a source is just another way of admitting they don’t want to look it up themselves, and are hoping you wont even spoon feed them.
Uh bullshit, I want to review sources. I'm not trusting anyone I don't know right off the bat because they said so. If you can't provide some sources of any kind of something you've been studying for "so long" you're probably nothing but a LARP.
If your sources have contradictory evidence, I want to debate it.
If your sources mean I'm wrong about something, I want to know it.
Also if that person is an actual expert, they may be able to provide better sources than what your bastardized censored search engines of Google or Duckduckgo can provide in a quick search.
really depends on the person you're talking to. i've shown things similar to what you linked below to some people, and they'll just dismiss it or not read it. sometimes they've told me that the below is far-right wing propaganda. never has anyone read & contemplated and continued a fruitful discussion. it's all quick, emotion-based rhetoric. if they're primed to reject a thesis they'll never agree with any source to show otherwise.
the people the meme targets are the ones who wanna be spoon fed answers and think that everything in this world is orderly and fits in neat little boxes. they'll also gladly watch hours of garbage on netflix but complain about being asked to watch a 30min lecture or documentary because "it's too long".
and when things like vaccine damage, inflation, the trans agenda start becoming too big to ignore they are surprised every time and wonder how these things could've happened.
It doesn't matter what this meme is targeted to. You should always be willing to back up your statements with sources for others to see. To argue for the opposite is to invite the stupidest of the human to confidently strut around like they know everything and we get a shit hole like Twitter.
If they don't accept the answer, that's on them but those lurking should be given a chance to learn and grow.
