pleasantly surprised that the word 'douche' is now an appropriate sound effect

This presentation is more about lies, damn lies, and statistics and how to visualize things to your liking. There is NOTHING wrong with that, I just think the true message here has less to do with comprehensive visualization of complex data than dumbing down data to dismiss what you don't like. Otherwise, each example he has given actually requires MANY visualization and just isn't so simple anymore.

I can visualize things quite neatly as well if I Ignore major things and create my own universe of information without a clear set of criteria other than as I like. The "fears" thing is a primary example, it's a bit of nonsense ot talk about "here's fears the media reports" and ignore 9/11 and terrorism and say "ah, that created a gap!" Even though that's not the point, it's the visualizations, problem is that how do you visualize the more complex reality he ignores?

He clearly says he is left leaning in the video. Don't worry, you wouldn't be the first to avoid inconvenient facts.
