I feel like people don’t understand the purpose of citing very well. You should be using citing as evidence. Remember those book essays you wrote? You would have to find quotes from the book to support an argument. It’s pointless not to cite because you read the book and know how it goes. You need to convince the reader with examples.
It’s the same for citing anything. Your argument or the information you have presented becomes much more credible if you show it corroborates with other people’s works.
In US public schooling it is never presented this way. The only reason we were ever told to cite is because of plagiarism, not to support our argument. It was drilled into us that not citing our work could end with us getting sued.
Capitalism baby! You dont own information, I do!
I’m a big fan of putting a very faded out picture of Joe Biden as the background for my sources slides.
To scare away fascists or to annoy progressives? Both?
Nothing political, it’s just funny.
