Right, you would know about being deaf. Thanks at least for giving me the reason.

I did specifically talk about monthly inflation. Showing the interanual inflation rate as an image and then saying it's increasing is at the very least purposefully deceitful, given that current inflation curve will of course overlap with the past inflation curve which was the highest in years, with 211% so of course it will show as such?

It it's plainly even more purposely malicious when you do know what I am talking about when I express monthly inflation rates, which surprise surprise, that same site has as information as well, which does show slowing:

But of course, that won't fit your narrative, so you will disregard it as well.

So yeah, pride yourself in trying to deceive people with whatever information slice you think fits your narrative,

I do ask myself what will you do when that same curve stops overlapping. Probably nothing. It will stop fitting your narrative at that point and you'll probably find something else to complain about
