> People often use “do you have sources, I'd like to read them” to imply “links, or that didn't happen”.
Oh, I just hadn't heard of these things. Thanks for the links!

However, I am now confused by the latter portion of your response
> Asking someone for sources doesn't prove anything.
I wasn't trying to prove anything, nor did I make any claims. I only wanted to be aware of current events. It does seem to me quite backward to place the burden of proof not on the party making claims, but someone asking to understand why that party made those claims.
I can understand not hearing of some of them, but it's kinda weird to not have heard of any of them. The next to last one for example was the George Floyd riots in summer 2020.
I agree, though I assumed (shame on me) these were in reference to events more current than 4 years ago. But, I’m not always completely in touch with US news or politics either.
It’s a problem that has been growing for well over a decade.
