2023-10-29 05:27:11 UTC - MISINFORMED_OR_POTENTIALLY_MISLEADING

The decrease pictured is about a 7% drop over 5 years (1.4% per year). This chart is using a nontraditional y-axis scaling in order to make the drop appear larger than it is. This is a tactic used in data visualization to misrepresent data and seemingly inflate numbers. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7419489/ https://www.lrs.org/2020/06/10/visualizing-data-manipulating-the-y-axis/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misleading_graph

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/1718342115518992548

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.
