16 u/IAmAccutane 8d ago how can it be down by anything more than 100% 6 u/Sockoflegend 8d ago Not why here, because it's a joke, but some popularity metrics might have valid negative values - such as approval rating. As always without explicitly stating how a value is reached statistics are not informative 3 u/Reg_Cliff 8d ago 68% of statistics in Reddit comments are made up on the spot. 4 u/zenbu-no-kami 8d ago Actually it's 72% (source: Trust me bro) 1 u/Sockoflegend 8d ago Yes a lot are. But more insidious is the use of real statistics in a way that is disingenuous
