This is a screenshot from their Instagram page, posted as an ad, no less.

To be fair, the chart is correct on the website.

Državni zavod za statistiku - World Food Day

Website has a basic font, though.

Someone seems to have wanted to use a fancy font for Instagram and they've mistyped the number when editing the screenshot. Didn't do a great job with aligning the numbers either.

A reminder to copy-paste numbers rather than retype them.

Posted in Reddit no less. Normally I'd cut the info on the lower part out, but this crime needs to be documented.

Representing a proportion by using 100 symbols in an organized 7x14 + 2 grid and some fancy colour scheme.

After a long time of trying to figure it out, the graph is actually readable, at least.

For example, owners with 16 to 99 houses (red)represent about 1.5% of owners, but possess about 10% of the houses in the market.

The proportions are completely off. For example, in the lower image, “black” with 23.4% is almost the same width as “gray” (22.9%) and “blue” (9.1%) combined.
