I just made the meme, so “liar” I suppose lol but honestly I was more making a joke about the new concentration camps being made and how whatever the number is now, it’s going to climb a lot.
whatever the number is now, it’s going to climb a lot.
But, again, it’s literally doing the opposite of climbing, and hasn’t been climbing for ~15 years.
It’s a near-worthless figure anyway—if I have 100 apples and 15 of them are rotten, and you have 5 apples which are all rotten, then I have 75% of all the rotten apples, while you only have 25%. But only 15% of mine are, while 100% of yours are. Which figure is more useful in gleaning information about how rotten person X’s apples are on average?
An actually-useful figure for a country is what percentage of that country’s population is incarcerated.
