The statement 'Oh come on. Is there a sale on made up data today?' is a sarcastic and dismissive response to a previous comment about the relationship between intelligence and political orientation. The tone is confrontational and implies that the previous comment lacks credibility. The overall conversation involves a debate on the correlation between intelligence and political beliefs, which is a public issue. However, the statement does not engage constructively and instead resorts to ridicule.
