Original Post
Electric cars pollute more than diesel - proof inside!

Everyone knows electric cars run on coal-powered electricity. Since coal is dirtier than diesel, it's obvious EVs are worse for the planet. All my neighbours who bought EVs still get power from a coal plant, and air quality hasn't improved, so EVs clearly make no difference.

About Truth Blocks

Truth blocks are minimal argument units that represent atomic reasoning. Each block is analyzed independently for:

  • Truth Score: Factual accuracy (0-1)
  • Reasoning Types: Deductive, inductive, etc.
  • Logical Fallacies: Detected reasoning errors
  • Confidence: AI certainty in analysis

The weighted score combines truth score with reasoning quality and fallacy penalties according to our scoring criteria.
