How Data Is Used to Mislead | Calling Bullshit (Deep Dive)
Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world — one book at a time.
This episode explores Calling Bullshit: The Art of Skepticism in a Data-Driven World by Carl T. Bergstrom and Jevin D. West, a practical examination of how misinformation, manipulation, and false authority spread through data, charts, and technical language.
The discussion breaks down common techniques such as misleading statistics, distorted visuals, and claims of causality that don’t hold up to scrutiny. Rather than treating deception as a personal failing, the episode examines bullshit as a structural feature of modern information systems.
