squarecuts on Nostr: There’s a fair point in here somewhere, but I can’t get over the shit infographic ...
There’s a fair point in here somewhere, but I can’t get over the shit infographic from X. It’s kinda misleading to compare the chart of cumulative deaths against media mentions. If you showed the cumulative media mentions, it would look pretty reasonable. If the point is that the news generally reports large or novel incidents, then the graph is successful.
