    And no I am not going to do the research for you.

    Cowbee brings the receipts, and you don’t. You do understand this is an argument being made in a public forum, and not your DMs, right? I can only assume that your goal is to feel intellectually superior, and not to actually persuade anyone to adopt your point of view.

        So you’re saying, if you declare something to be fake (‘fan-fiction’), and then there’s evidence (‘receipts’) that it’s true, the evidence becomes ‘worthless’?

        Hmmm…

          Being critical of sources is paramount in historical research 🤷

            But you’re not being critical if you aren’t giving any actual criticisms. You can’t just declare stuff you have to back it up.
