I just mean I can relate to the comic.

In my line of work it’s not uncommon for the people requesting data visualizations to ask the data engineers/analysts to simply remove data points that don’t suit whatever narrative they’re trying to construct with the visual. We have to push back against that whenever possible because, you know… that’s bullshit.

Data Architect/Analyst here. I felt this comic.
