I take it these are percentages of all complaints? Because the number of complaints for anti-Jewish hate crimes was 116 in 2020, but 198 in 2021, so a definite increase, but hate crime overall basically doubled as well, so the relative amount to the total is lower.

These are not the same thing and especially when comparing over time you need to take into account how the definitions for the categories themselves change.

yes that is what the trend I posted shows.
