Sourcepost

A specific instance of Source Sophism—a post or comment whose sole purpose is to demand sources in a way that exhausts or dismisses rather than inquires. The Sourcepost often appears reasonable: "source?" "citation needed." But its function is not to seek information; it's to cast doubt, shift burden, or end engagement. The Sourcepost is recognizable by its pattern: demand source, dismiss source, demand better source, repeat. It's a rhetorical move disguised as a request.
"Source?" he commented, and nothing else. Not engagement, not discussion—just the demand. Sourcepost: source as conversation-ender, citation as cudgel. He didn't want to know; he wanted to stop knowing."
