it just occurred to me that the reason people always get confused about what averages mean is because we're never told or taught that they're fake.

averages are hypotheticals, they don't exist.
averages are a horizontal line drawn on a slope, and it only works for estimates if the slope wasn't very steep in the first place.

when people say "average person" they are thinking of the median (the one in the middle) or mode (the most commonly seen) person while using a point of data for a person that doesn't exist.

you cannot find an average person, it's impossible because they are a made-up person.

more people need to realize this and use median and mode measurements more often, especially people writing articles and news stories.

Unabashedly stolen from reddit (cc @OCRbot)

the attitude around 'going carless' is more and more mirroring the attitude around organic food

in that it is being used as a one question litmus test without nuance, to sort people into "good" and "bad" without addressing any of the reasons why someone couldn't instantly eat all organic food/instantly no longer owning a car

it has become a tool of punishing those who are not sitting on a mountain of privilege
