ddeus replylemmy.world2Hide 2 repliesThere's something fishy going on here cause after some light ddging it seems Portugal has an incarceration rate of about 110 inmates per 100,000 people. Also I found this same map elsewhere and it does not show Portugal in red.28

NNaiveBayesian programming.devAlmost 1% of US Americans are in prison? That sounds crazy high! Edit: More recent data suggest it's around 531per 100,000 for the USA (https://www.prisonstudies.org/highest-to-lowest/prison_population_rate?field_region_taxonomy_tid=All), so more like 0.5%20
Australia: "we're all prisoners here"
Didn't notice that until this comment.

Portugal is red because it was stained with an abundance of port wine.
