    I mean, it’s a binary: either you like it or you don’t (plus the neutral option). The ratings in the meme were portion of people who liked it and didn’t. So you will either always fall with the majority or minority (or won’t care if you feel neutral about it). There is no wildly inaccurate for that, there’s just how many others you agree or disagree with.

    Assuming their sample population is representative, at least, because what it says about the population can be inaccurate (but “my friend group all agrees with the minority side” doesn’t necessarily mean it’s inaccurate for the pop since your friend group probably doesn’t represent the entire pop).
