Parasource

A source of information that is not considered reliable by mainstream academic or journalistic standards but is trusted within a specific subculture, community, or alternative epistemology. Examples include oral traditions, channeled texts, leaked documents with no provenance, anonymous whistleblowers, or social media influencers. Parasources are often dismissed as “not a real source” in formal debates. However, their users argue that mainstream sources are biased and that parasources provide hidden truths. The term is used critically to call out dubious references: “That’s not a source; it’s a parasource – a blog with no editorial oversight.” In some contexts, “parasource” is reclaimed by marginalized groups who reject institutional gatekeeping.
Example: “He cited a Telegram channel as evidence. She said: ‘That’s a parasource – no author, no verification, no accountability. I can’t accept it.’ He replied: ‘Mainstream media is also biased. Parasources are the only way to get uncensored information.’”

Persources misses nothing.

The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.

The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.

The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.
"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"

"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"
