Paraphrasing @JoshTerryPlays: Demanding a content creator produce a source proving what they’ve said is “a perfect weapon you should never use.” It’s forcing them to produce evidence or be called a liar. Calling them a liar is an attack, not a debate. Do your own research.
He’s right. Asking for a source for more info is great. Researching what you read to make sure it’s true is smart. Debating an idea is also cool.
“YOU’RE FULL OF CRAP, I DEMAND YOU PRODUCE EVIDENCE” is just saying “You’re a liar” in 9 words instead of 3.
Go look up the info.

I get this one a lot. Even about basic neurology. “Men have more vasopressin receptors than women.”
“THIS IS MISOGYNY. I DEMAND TO SEE YOUR SOURCES. PRODUCE EVIDENCE OR BE PROVED A LIAR.”
It’s really: “I don’t like this. I refuse it. And I don’t know how to use Google search.”

I’ve learned to just ignore people who demand sources. If they ask nicely I’ll do the Google legwork for them.
People who make it an attack go on the Block list. They provide negative value to the whole conversation. You wanna cry like a baby, I’ll hit eject.

I’ve done my research before opening my mouth. If you feel the urge to attack, go do the research yourself.
