    Good grief. How are they so oblivious to the amount of reaching they’re doing?

    If ASPI makes a report favourable to China despite having every reason to do the opposite (and a track record of distorting the truth to do the opposite), and one takes it and try to explain in the comments why it’s too favourable to China, then one has some self-criticism to do.

    Anyone trying to out-ASPI ASPI has some serious reality checking to do.

    I cracked up when one of them said that Chinese authors “produce thousands of garbage papers” to pad the figures. Like (1) why would China invest in dubious research methods like this when it wants to dominate these critical technologies, (2) what do they think “publish or perish” means in the West, and (3) were they hurt when China beat the absolute crap out of the USA in the last physics and maths olympiads?
