Above is a perfect example of where things break down and why people shut down and dismiss a point being made. Below is the post revised to a manner in which it would make a person think “hmm” not “oh, one of those”
I removed “serious question” and all that followed. The original point seems valid but it is undermined by going off topic and piling on various controversial subjects. If you want to harangue “the government” (read Trump I’m sure and I don’t really disagree) then start a post doing so. If you want people who don’t already agree with your other points to see your graph and think, agree, and maybe take away something from it, then leave it at that. If you are simply looking for likes, thumbs up, and head nods then proceed as you are. There’s a phrase in the modern vernacular that Fox newsians have for that and I wish it didn’t actually describe many situations so well.
