Isn't that graph a bit misleading

[–] IttihadChe@lemmy.ml 22 points 3 months ago (13 children)

In what way is it misleading? It seems straightforward to me.

I thought the states were being compared to other countries. Didn't look properly on the phone.

[–] Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 22 points 2 months ago (1 children)

They are. Just ALL the states are significantly worse than most countries.

Yes but that doesn't really say much. We know it's bad in the US. If all German states were bad that would still only tell you that in average it's bad in Germany

not really. the fact that Louisiana has nearly double the rate of Oregon is significant. so is the fact that ~~racist~~ southern states are at the top and are the ones beating the us average.
