Definition of concepts from abstract:

Political views, opinions, and worldviews become increasingly irreconcilable (idea-based polarization), while at the same time society appears to be getting fractured in antagonistic, opposing camps (identity-based polarization).

I'm not sure how it is actually measured. It is from the v-dem dataset. Is that questionaire data?

Yeah, in what scale is polarisation measured? How are identity or idea-based polarisation defined? Also, what's up with the awful kerning?

This should be a scatter plot.

God if only there were a way to plot x by y on two independent axis...

Well I don't see how you would be able to tell which dot belongs to which country. I would like a scatter plot, but it appears the authors want to tell a different story

could we install a turbine and use this to generate power

If populist propaganda could generate power we'd be fossil fuel free by next week

I see USA, Hungary, and Poland up there pretty high. I wonder if Russia has anything to do with that.

How does one read this chart?

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Just go to the link, which is a long string of numbers displayed as text in an image so as to be as cumbersome as possible.

by downloading the data and turning it into a scatter plot
