If this war shows something than how dependent we all are on each other. Energy, machine parts, food etc., everyone needs something. So most relationships are not one-sided.

Speaking of India they could decide to change their energy imports but that would deeply affect their military also because it's based on Russian tech. So it's complex.

This might not fit your worldview but

Uhm. That's a different chart. Results vs. Details.

Oh yes, he looks exactly what and how many countries voted against him and he does not like it. In fact, it's the whole point, he wants a new USSR which is feared like 60 years ago. The vote shows how far away those times are.

No. Most countries that did not vote Yes are either fearing Russia, are shitholes themselves or are dependent on Russia. India is the biggest of them.

I was protesting on the streets when the US invaded Iraque in the 90s as well as in the 2000s. And I would've been because of Vietnam or the CIA's involvement in Latin America. So I am not one of "you guys".

Doesn't change the fact that any aggressor who invades a neighbour should get a clear opinion of the world.

It's still 141:7 of those who voted. Like a general election, where no one talks about the 33% who did not. So your point is that we should generally talk about those who abstained?

Ok, point taken. But for 141:7 it's not really making a difference.

Also I feel people hate pie charts in general?

It can. Imagine a UN but without a separate security council, that has the power similar to the central government of a nation. No single country could do such shit without hard consequences.

Ok than the best visualisation would be

Yes: 141
No: 7

You're welcome.

Some people seem to think this. I for myself find many very interesting charts here that are not visually beautiful and I would miss them if the sub would only allow charts that are unique and visually nice. Stunning data is also beautiful.

In my case it's just a historic vote with no consequences. But it contradicts Putin's propaganda.

Edit: From the subreddit rules:

Default output from Excel, R, mapping programs, etc. can be overly cluttered and hard to understand. Try looking at font sizes, erroneous grid lines, alignment, and aliasing. A lack of good design ultimately limits the ability of a visualization to convey information.

That's because you did not consider how it is important that so many countries have the balls to openly condemn the action of a powerful aggressor even if this has no direct consequences.

But maybe you have a solution what the 141 countries can do?

It's not pointless to show a dictator that a vast majority disagrees.

But yes, the veto rights in the security council and the possession of nuclear weapons make it difficult to give a an aggressor the answer he deserves.

What's your recommendation to the 141 countries?

7 vs. 141 is small. And it's standard to start the data in the north.

Are you on dark mode? Because there's a white background originally.

If we want to progress we need to stand together against any aggressor invading a foreign country for non reason.

And before you ask, yes, that includes what GW Bush did to Iraque. But Saddam Hussein was a dictator so there was not much empathy.

And again, many countries of the 141 are not "the West"!

I like 3D pie charts. I never understood the hate. In this case it's a single chart with only two parts so I don't see a problem.

Do you also tell that to all TV stations after an election?

A pie chat is a very obvious choice to give a fast view on the results of a dichotome question. Also notice the nice coloring.

Edit because many downvoted: Why all the hate for a poor pie chart? It's a standard chart to show what answers of 100 are reaching a bigger or smaller part. For example very common if you want to show the importance of different industries as parts of s countries GDP.

The impact is the message to all potential aggressors: It's not just "The West" condemning Russias actions, it's a vast majority of countries.

We're still in a very early state of uniting the planet so this is one small step.

It's as misleading as leaving out absentions of a general election

Edit: Did you know that 33% did not vote in the last US election and no one cares? If you downvote at least argue why it's a difference if less than 20% of countries did the same in the UN vote?

I was asleep, sorry.

All cowards

The data itself is beautiful.

Edit: Please read the rules.
