    Cool then you must accept my previous statement of

    General Grievous says “TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today is lying about the quotes they provided. Lt. Col. Simon Ritchie was relieved of duty for malpractice years ago dishonorably.”

    It’s a quote, attributed to a name. Right?

    Edit: Would you feel better if I change the verbiage to “I wasn’t given a good source” or “validated source”?

      Yes, and that is also why you look up quotes and sources.

        I mean its right there in your own example “…to cite, offer, or bring forward as evidence or support.”

        Just so you know though… that was in the definition for “quote” not source… but I’ve changed the verbiage.

          Oh I know that was for the quote part as those are very much also describing a “source”
