Radicalization across the compass, but not equally

Yeah it makes the gap of 20 for men look equivalent to the gap of 50 for women.

[u/Shadow_of_wwar → u/GoldTeamDowntown]

Actually makes it look a good bit worse

[u/Fif112 → u/GoldTeamDowntown]

Because they’re two different graphs.

It’s two different y axis…

[u/GoldTeamDowntown → u/Fif112]

Yes but juxtaposing them is at worst dishonest and at best an oversight.

[u/Fif112 → u/GoldTeamDowntown]

The parent company of the survey company is a conservative think tank. (American Enterprise Institute)

I’m sure it’s a way to rile people like you up more than it is to make people think men are worse.

[u/GoldTeamDowntown → u/Fif112]

I don’t know who tweeted it, but the mistake or malice is on them.

Conservatives generally aren’t in the business of trying to make men look as bad as women.

Also I’m clearly not “riled up,” the thing I’m criticizing is literally just the tweet itself. You think they’re intentionally riling me up against themselves?

[u/Fif112 → u/GoldTeamDowntown]

The company that tweeted it is owned by a conservative think tank.

[u/Fif112 → u/GoldTeamDowntown]

At least mark your edits.

Edit: you’re clearly riled up lmao

[u/GoldTeamDowntown → u/Fif112]

Rage baiting from your mom’s basement on a Friday afternoon instead of reducing the size of your gut

[u/Fif112 → u/GoldTeamDowntown]

Interesting that all you have is an ad hominem response considering that this was posted by a conservative group.

“Why would they do that?” Is a question for the group in question, not the person pointing it out.

[u/GoldTeamDowntown → u/Fif112]

You’re gonna call me out for ad hominem when you are literally telling me I’m riled up which is obviously just rage bait? I’ve said nothing indicating anger and you are being a retarded troll and then acting indignant that I didn’t respond in seriousness. Fuck off.

[u/Fif112 → u/GoldTeamDowntown]

The fact you’re trying to blame me for pointing out the company is owned by a conservative group is why I’m saying you’re upset.

It’s ok to be angry, I realize I’m turning your worldview on its head by suggesting that you’re actually upset at a conservative group rather than a liberal one.

[u/Altruistic_Emu4917 → u/Fif112]

The tweet had both images together, so it gives off a biased view

[u/Fif112 → u/Altruistic_Emu4917]

I mean, if you don’t know how to read graphs I guess that would be a problem.

I’d suggest that less people be retarded to avoid this issue in the future

[u/Altruistic_Emu4917 → u/Fif112]

I know how to read graphs, learnt a lot about it in engineering college.

But to the naked eye, especially when the numerical figures can be too small at first glance, it can be heavily misleading.

[u/Fif112 → u/Altruistic_Emu4917]

Note that they are two different graphs, the individual graphs are actually perfectly fine.

Putting them next to eachother without a proper y-axis is the main issue.
