Alt-text for previous post, a graphic from France 24 that shows exit poll for french parliament election. Left alliance first, centrists second, far-right way behind.
@Loukas The proportions are all wrong on that graphic
@anarchic_teapot someone got a surprise
@Loukas You should have heard the cheers.
@anarchic_teapot @Loukas I'm pretty sure even I could make excel produce an accurate one. Outrageous anyone allowed that be published.
@Iwillyeah @Loukas Almost certainly committed by an intern working at 1/3 the minimum wage.
@anarchic_teapot @Loukas no doubt, but someone getting paid more said yeah, looks fine, hit send.
@Iwillyeah @Loukas I doubt they even looked at it
@Loukas what the heck's going on with that graph? The area of 172 is like half of 152?
@Mabande they employed the person who sets the proportion of Africa and Asia to Europe and America on the maps
@Loukas fckn Mercator strikes again
@Loukas Create an accurate representation of French election results challenge level: impossible https://mastodon.top/@defakator/112750023888182866
@Loukas I'm guessing whoever made that chart is suspicious of Arabic numerals?
@Loukas Who produced this disgrace??
