Do you have an accurate view of the world? Most people don't. Take the 13-question Factfulness quiz from Hans Rosling and Gapminder. Factfulness reveals the ten instincts that distort our perspective of the world.
Gotta love how they're all like, "Actually the average lifespan is 72 years but we rounded down so as not to overstate progress." Progress? From the Bible, Psalm 90, verse 10: "The days of our years are three score and ten (70)." The only way it's a significant increase is if you distort the numbers by including infant mortality, one of their favorite tricks.
Also they're like, "We intentionally didn't define low-income because our goal was to see how people would interpret it." Wtf don't mark it wrong then lol, that's not how quizzes work.
Shoulda just assumed middle income would be defined the same way they do standard deviations to include the majority of the population I guess. As if most countries have a good standard of living and we should accept that as all people should be striving for.
