I’m getting serious deja vu here, wasn’t this article posted a week or two ago?

Edit: found it, this article was similar https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32468950

The car color graph is very effective, nice work.

I wonder if something can be deduced about people's opinion of the world/economy based on the colors (or at least the manufacturer's).

Not linking to the original is rather sad.

There is a very clear reason for that, and it's in the notes of the post. There is very clear disdain for the twitter user, primarily as he seems to be a 'traditionalist fascist'. On Tumblr, especially, they are not particularly fond of the author in any way.

This post was originally screenshots, but was then rewritten with additional points + additional sources. The idea was to separate out the 'the world was better in the past!' and transform it to a critique/discussion of capitalism.

Great work, keep tha noggin workin!
