2023-10-11 16:53:52 UTC - MISINFORMED_OR_POTENTIALLY_MISLEADING

The statistic is incorrect, it conflates war and policy caused deaths (e.g. Mao's Great Leap forward and the collapse of flood defences by Chinese forces to stop Japanese troops in the 1930s) with climate related ones in pre 1980s data.

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1712145134983221735

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
