The stupidest thing though is that you don't even have to argue against their stupid definition of "most polarizing". Even using the definition they give, the numbers don't support the conclusion, and they published the very table that contradicts the headline. It's like declaring the Green Bay Packers the winningest Super Bowl team in history because they won the first two, then immediately showing the chart that shows 3 teams that have more wins than they do.
