Argument Source Spotter

A static reference and builder that helps people trace a viral claim, quote, or persuasive line back to its earliest strong source, weak link, or missing context, turning heated group-chat arguments into a calm, shareable source map rather than a personality clash.

How it helps

Use it for a focused task

This page centers on a source-chain builder. You paste the claim or screenshot text, then fill in what you can find: who said it, when, where, and the exact wording.

The page builds a source trail, flags missing links, and writes a one-paragraph neutral reply you can copy into a group chat. Below the builder are three example chains for overclaimed corporate statements, recycled political quotes, and out-of-context legal news, plus a notes panel covering common mistakes, edge cases, and a printable response template.

Paste the claim into the top field. Add each source you can find, starting with the oldest one.
