Whenever these hot trends show up, you're only seeing when it hits peak popularity. You need a comparison to see how it is permeating society. Unsurprisingly, it appears very few people are searching for this compared to the general population.

Don't be too Lemmy bubbled, we talk alot about it here for us to know it but I think it's an advanced enough word for people with only a high school education not to know.

I'm more impressed that people in the South tuned into the speech.

The states that didn’t know, and the states that don’t want to know or don’t care.

It’s because Biden just said oligarchy in a speech.

Its really obnoxious that Google doesn't provide any units at all for the vertical axis

I think someone said they used to

[–] Baguette@lemm.ee 1 points 2 hours ago

They provide one on the left (0, 25, 50, 75, 100)

What those units mean I have no clue, but I'm guessing 100 means 100% and is the highest amount of views, which they then base the rest on (5% of the highest recorded views, etc)

That's just an ol' wives tale man, no way
