To discover the origins of the Vanilla Rhapsody chart, what group produced it (their ideology and possible motives), how does it twist data to achieve the results it does and a one sentence (if possible) answer that can be used to disprove it conclusively every time it is trotted out for the purpose of misleading voters.

I do not believe that chart is either an accident of miscalculation or an innocent mistake of some kind, I believe it to be propaganda with origins that are most likely unsavory if not outright libertarian or full on right wing ratfucking (to use a favorite term of those that favor this bit of misinformation).

Any help from the group I believe would help us all with this bit of dishonesty. It is dangerous because some just take it at face value because it appears designed to look like the real thing thus spoofing the truth to tell a lie.
