Soo… since OP is a jackass, here’s the link: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/news/10697529/Prisoners-could-serve-1000-year-sentence-in-eight-hours.html
The gist (emphasis mine):
I can’t fathom why this is report-worthy. Was April 2014 such a boring month?
I wouldn't call OP a jackass for not providing the source for a shitpost.
providing source is good form in every context
Sure, the source would have been nice. They're not a jackass for not providing it though. Do you send the source every time you show a friend a meme?
Yes, I do. In this case I think it’s vital to link to the source, since the meme make it look like this garbage was a real thing.
Maybe they didn't have the source. Again, we're on the shitpost community. I think it's unreasonable to call someone a jackass because they don't research the sources for every meme that they find and shitpost. Especially when they're a power-user like OP and post 30-some times a day.
Well, yeah, but I come from furry culture. Gotta respect your artists.

It’s older than that if you want to cite fiction
Which someone saying “maybe one day we can” is
This philosopher hack has also written about eugenic BS aimed at sculpting humanity to have a smaller carbon footprint. I'm ok with op not actually linking to her crap.
You could imagine.
