It’s like repeatedly using an old picture of a street to make realtime claims about the traffic there.

It is worse then that really, as the data used has shown to be heavily siloed (think a subreddit with heavy modderation or a facebook group). So its like using a old biased propaganda photo of a street to make realtime claims about the traffic there.
