You seem really nice. S/ No wonder no one responds to your begging for sex on the internet.

Could you have possibly done a worse job visualizing this data? 90% of it is 1. Could have literally had a histogram OR 4 buckets. 3 votes and everyone else that matters. Hell your paragraph communicates data more efficiently than your graph.

Loogs like a cute frog with the amazon river as the mouth and that darker spot closer to venezuela as the eye!

I just clearly told why I think it is bad practice, it makes it impossible to tell how forested the coastlines are.

Bad practice...... Says who?

I don't think that's helpful or even looks good. If the point is so people can see where there are and aren't forests, now you can't because the shoreline just melts into nothingness. It's really bad practice to use a color that will fade into your background.

Data seems to be off from other polls I’ve seen. Especially Supreme Court confidence which is currently showing at 78% but most polls I’ve seen are around 50% or lower.
Additionally, I’m skeptical of any poll that shows a 90%+ confidence in the US for anything

The water needs a different color or you need a border, Chile and Bolivia just dissolve and you can't really tell where the actual border is.

Lol, no they don't. Ironic that you fell for that, though.
Trying to trick us again, Mr Journalist?

Unless you also put a major Stock index into the graph this is extremely misleading. Yes investing in gold will outpace inflation, but there are so many other investment options that have done much much better

The representatives in the house have to elect a speaker. To do that, one person has to obtain a simple majority of the votes from the representatives. In all of the rounds leading up to the last one, the votes were split so that no one candidate has the majority.

Why is inflation a straight line moving steadily up? This doesn't match the inflation rate over time at all.

Or not showing stocks which have out paced gold and inflation way more.

I think you're misinterpreting it - the northern coast of Chile is virtually black in the image, so almost no forest.

Graph should start at 1944. Starting in 1971, when the gold standard was removed after 27 years of being fixed to the dollar, shows a massive adjustment for the price to catch up to the previous years of inflation that occurred.

This reminds me of the graphs showing annual swimming pool drownings compared to Nick Cage movies released that year

Yes, a legend is needed. Much more of northern coastal Chile is 'forested' than I would have expected, if I'm interpreting this correctly.

What are the units? This doesn't tell me anything because I don't know if this is percent change, annualized percent, or something else.
