The thing I found funny, and why I’m posting here, comes from observing why it was that they started their graph at 2003 and exactly at 2003.
I feel like you could use this as a slide in a little seminar in “how to curate your data until it matches your conclusion, instead of the other way around.”
And also, I don’t think the hunger rate suddenly dropped from epic to 0 exactly in 2003, I think more likely Our World in Data is just a little bit shoddy about their data.
you can’t chew gum and type at the same time without risk of choking to death. we get it.
my god, what a pointless and petty existence you must have, whining and moaning to get attention on the internet from people who genuinely despise you.
LoL. You think I’m here for you?!
I’m here to piss on propaganda and hasbara. As Ben Franklin would have wanted us to do.
