Some people are very easily amused, indeed.
You feel a compulsion to ANSWER.EVERY.SINGLE.SENTENCE even if only with an insult. Should I feel flattered?
Derec posts a graph designed to be misleading; defends it because it did NOT come from InfoWars, Facebook, or some other obvious right-wing stupidist website;
It was not misleading, and it came from a reputable news organization.
To mimic your compulsion, I'll answer this by pointing out there are TWO errors in this ONE sentence.
pretends that what the country needs is DEFLATION.
Reading comprehension fail. I never said that "what the country needs is DEFLATION".
No. What you DID rant about was the fact that prices have not come down. You MIGHT be informed well enough to know that price DEflation is very rare and almost always UNdesirable. But because that fact didn't fit your rant, you suppressed your own knowledge.
I simply offered an explanation for why people are still feeling bad about inflation even though the inflation rate has gone down. The reason is the recent cumulative inflation still being felt by people.
Wrong again. The reason why Trumplickers resent Biden's inflation is because Fucker Carlson and Sean Hannity tell them to. Click on the following video to understand how Trump voters view Biden. It's already set to start at the appropriate clip.

Then, when ZiprHead posts better informed numbers he whines that a chart is not a graph!
That's not a whine, it's a critique of the medium. Graphs are used over tables for reasons of better visual representation.
"Better visual representation" of blatant propaganda. Starting the graph at 1 Jan 2021 with a bold-face "Biden"??? And you STILL don't grasp that the graph was pure propaganda. The IDS is strong with you!
Your graph was pernicious propaganda; ANYTHING would be better. This was explained to you, but you have failed to comprehend or acknowledge why it was reprehensible. Your only answer amuses! Because the graph didn't seem to come from the Alt-Right it must be OK.
Wrong again! American mainstream media has been dumbed-down in hopes of pounding sense into dumb brains. For years now, I've been reading non-US news sites when I want good reporting.
Also, his table was not "better informed". Both were from the same source! But his was just inflation rates, NOT cumulative effect, which was my point.
if you're sincere about wanting better graphs try fred.stlouisfed.org . It may take a few minutes to get accustomed to the interface, but it offers much data, many tools, and flexibility.
I like FRED. I didn't have time to fiddle with settings and then download the image, so I posted an existing one.
It takes about 2½ seconds to link to a FRED graph or image. How long did it take you to find your misleading anti-Biden graph?
But Derec is correct about one thing! American voters are pitifully stupid, and will let Trump and other propagandists TELL them whether they're feeling prosperous or not, rather than just looking at their own pocketbooks. Derec -- who tells us he's voting for Biden -- and other propagandists like him will help ensure Trump victory in 23 weeks. This will be a tragedy far FAR bigger than the 9/11 attacks.
I keep telling you that because it is true.
Contradicting yourself? Yesterday you recanted with something like "I won't vote for Trump; but I may or may not vote for Biden." You're in a swing state FCS! Surely you understand that a vote for Alfred E. Newman or RFK, Jr. is like half a vote for Trump. If you truly understood the danger of fascism you'd vote for WHOEVER the Democratic candidate was.
I do not fancy myself nearly influential enough, but if I was, I would be making Trump victory less likely by pointing out honestly where Biden is struggling. Instead of being a "yes-man" like you who can't countenance anything bad being said about his candidate. You are the ¬MAGA, as cult-like about Biden as they are about Trump.
WOW! I am a centrist -- albeit a radical centrist! -- who doesn't want to see one of the greatest democracies ever became a fascist rogue state. If the D's were running Joe Manchin or Mitt Romney I'd be just as adamant in supporting the anti-Trump.
Believe it or don't I'm almost on YOUR side in the on-going "How Stupid is Derec?" debate. But now, by comparing ME to Trumplickers you've demonstrated that you really are as confused and partisan as your detractors say.
