You have to be so insanely biased by compounded media assault and virtue signalling to ignore the raw data and allow the open manipulation of the stats to keep you blinded by this shit.

Learn R/Python/Whatever you want, download the raw data and reach your own conclusions. If a study refuses to provide the data, don't believe it.

I like the study of statistics, rhetoric, psychology etc. The fact that you can manipulate the general population while also being somewhat immune from manipulation by them if you know these gives a real sense of knowledge = power

Manipulation of statistic is based on tricking ignorant people. It's really no different from quack "medicine", financial schemes, modern religious cults etc.
However, the fact of the matter is that you need a lot more education to discern shit stastics, compared to the other ones.
