- Comment on Who the fuck needs an x axis anyway 6 days ago:
I think there’s actually not 2 bars per year, but instead:
- the first red bar = the year 2000
- the second bar (which is not paired with another bar, and also, is not labelled at all) = the year 2002
- the third bar = the year 2004
- the fourth bar = the year 2006
- and so on until the final bar, the twelfth one, = the year 2022
The x axis increases by 2 years each entry.
The number after the “|” is only meant to “helpfully” (and confusingly) tell you when those children were born. To take your example:
- the data for the year 2000 is represented by the first red bar (7 per 1000 eight year olds had autism in 2000) and is labelled as 2000 | 1992 because those kids were born in 1992.
- the data for the year 2008 is represented by the fifth red bar (11 per 1000 eight year olds had autism in 2008) and is labelled as 2008 | 2000 because those kids were born in 2000.

When they collected the data in 2000, about seven 8 year olds out of 1000 had autism. Those children were born in 1992.
When they collected the data in 2002, about six 8 year olds out of 1000 had autism. Those children were born in 1994. This information was not labelled on the x axis.
When they collected the data in 2004, about eight 8 year olds out of 1000 had autism. Those children were born in 1996.
When they collected the data in 2006, about six 8 year olds out of 1000 had autism. Those children were born in 1998. This information was not labelled on the x axis.
When they collected the data in 2008, about eleven 8 year olds out of 1000 had autism. Those children were born in 2000.
… I’m too lazy to continue but …
When they collected the data in 2020, about twenty seven 8 year olds out of 1000 had autism. Those children were born in 2012.
When they collected the data in 2022, about thirty two 8 year olds out of 1000 had autism. Those children were born in 2014. This information was not labelled on the x axis.
I’m not positive i’m reading it right, but that’s what I think they were trying to convey with this (terribly labeled) graph.

“DARVO” maybe?
DARVO (an acronym for “Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender”) is a reaction that perpetrators of wrongdoing, such as abusers or sexual offenders, may display in response to being held accountable for their behavior.[1]
