I am not a y-axis-at-zero truther but in this case a y-axis that starts at 0 would be useful. Or you could use a log scale!

Why are you not a y-axis-at-zero truther? It's the place to be.

When you want to show the difference in two lines, the slope is small and the absolute value is large, zero won't do.

False flag.

Sometimes y axis at zero isn't the best way to convey info. This is not misleading and the info is clear.

Each shows that support of the right-wing nationalist party declined but both the absolute AND relative decline are different on each chart.

Folks, I thank you, but I'm trying to troll the best man in my wedding.

Appreciate the congrats.

America is a cautionary tale.

America saves Europe once again

One point that @MarietjeSchaake makes in our convo: far right parties are faring poorer b/c center right parties are adopting their policies

And which policy of FPO has eg OVP adopted? Instead I see in Austria shift of FPO to support of EU and euro, adopting OVP position. In

Finland, alt-right wing of Finns party purged in internal coup. FN in France ditching Frexit policy and soon ditching euro-exit policy too.

Instead we see success of parties and personalities with much greater pro-EU and pro-Euro stance. Macron, van Bellen, Cs in ES etc.

van Bellen was literally a 50/50 election, so that example isnt really comparable. Meanwhile the AfD is on course to move even further right

van Bellen was literally 50/50 in first attempt, not second. AfD is on course to not even get to parliament, despite year ago polling at 15

Oh, they will be in parliament with at least 7-8%, Im not gonna get too optimistic about that.
