As a bit of fun here is an example of the subconscious use of presenting data in a manner to promote the narrative that global warming is a very recent problem :
www.climate.gov/news-features/understanding-climate/climate-change-global-temperature
Note that by zeroing the data at 1950 and colouring everything blue below the line (implying cold) and everything above red (implying hot) they effectively use the same data to imply that hearing only occurred since 1970. (Because 1940-1970 is really a cooling period).
The whole chunk before 1940 is implied to be cold!
... the subtle use of psychology to promote a message...
