If you don’t how are you supposed to know what information it’s telling you? It could shades of purple for all you know.
If you realize how most people act and think, you can tell them lies while telling the truth. Which is what people are usually trying to do when they start graphs away from zero.
well yea but this also isn't like important stuff so I didn't bother looking
So keep your idiocy to yourself next time.
you say that as if everyone analyses every aspect of everything they encounter. most people will glance at the graph, see a huge jump, and not look into it more. that's why statistics are so easy to falsify or make misleading
If you want to engage in a conversation or use that information, yes you should properly read it. What could possibly be added to a discussion otherwise? Just having people have to correct and call out your bullshit? Lmfao.
Since you are engaging in comments within a post about this, everyone would assume you read the graph properly, since you obviously can’t add to a conversation without actually knowing the information.
So yes, leave your idiocy elsewhere next time, read the shit, or don’t add your opinion, really simple concept.
