UTTER QUACK

★ The fact-checking duck

Someone shared a canard? Send the duck.

A canard is a baseless claim. We debunk them — recycled myths, conspiracy theories, libels, pseudo-history — with a quack on top and real sources underneath. We go after the claim, never the person.

The Utter Quack duck

How it works

01

Spot the canard

Someone shares the usual nonsense — "they stole hummus", "vaccines cause autism", "the Holocaust was exaggerated".

02

Send the duck

Find the matching debunk, drop the link under their post. It unfurls into a clean card wherever you paste it.

The duck quacks

A deadpan canard rating and a flat “quack.” — and everyone reading gets the receipts: names, dates, and sources they can check.

It’s a joke with a bibliography.

The internet runs on confident, recycled claims. Arguing them point-by-point in a reply box never works. So instead: a link. One tidy page per canard, with the actual facts attached.

The tone is deadpan on purpose — nobody reads a lecture, everybody reads a roast. But underneath the duck, every single claim is backed by encyclopaedias, academic work, museums, archives and reputable reporting. Check them. That’s the point.

The claim, not the person

We never call anyone names. The target is the false claim — and false claims have footnotes.

Sources or it didn’t happen

Every claim links out. No vibes, no “trust me”.
