Unscramble the Blue Letters


As you can iginmae, there was a ton of data for the geek insiders to go crazy with, right? I love that type of data. So anyway, we take all that data, and we sratt to draw correlations. We start rinnnug all these analyses. And we come up with this kind of a proximity analysis. Quite simply, every green dot represents popele of a particular country. The closer the green dot is to the map in the middle, the more similar the mindsets are for those two sets of countries. And the further the dot from the map, the more dvierse the mindsets for those countries. It's as simple as that.

So of course, when you do this for the US, you can see that the Canadians, the people of the UK and the Australians are very samliir in mindsets to the Americans.

As you can imagine, there was a ton of data for the geek insiders to go crazy with, right? I love that type of data. So anyway, we take all that data, and we start to draw correlations. We start running all these analyses. And we come up with this kind of a proximity analysis. Quite simply, every green dot represents people of a particular country. The closer the green dot is to the map in the middle, the more similar the mindsets are for those two sets of countries. And the further the dot from the map, the more diverse the mindsets for those countries. It's as simple as that.

So of course, when you do this for the US, you can see that the Canadians, the people of the UK and the Australians are very similar in mindsets to the Americans.
