that’s a lot. good one.

How can it be personal attacks. It is simple logic. I give you a simple example -> The research conducted in certain countries usually is based on industry needs of the country. In China, for example, the have demand in the technology of space exploration and High-speed rail. So you’ll see a lot of research being churned out speedily by a number of local researchers due to the immediate demand in the country. You’ve touched about ball bearing tech, for example, and this is an example of recent research article for that which could be beneficial in the HSR areas. When those people in the same country citing each other, we can’t simply claim they’re doing it as a matter of convenience. It could be an indicator that the subject itself is the top priority in the country.

Another point to consider -> If the journal where the article have been written is in the Scopus index, there’s even low probability for the work to be of low value, no matter who has been citing them.

Of course that the general idea, but there’s still room to debate.

what exactly am I violating?

Man… that’s based on Scopus index. Do you even know what you’re talking about.

Whats the need to involve Fox News into this? We are dealing with science and technology matters. At least I expect something more academic in nature.

Anyway, is this not good enough source for. you? SJR - International Science Ranking

Can you share some examples of fake science developed by China?

that’s interesting POV.

People tend to think of you view as racist, but you are describing a culture of weirdos that are prevalent in certain society. I don’t think your going to win thus the downvotes, but I understood you well.

They funded hamas

I know that they turn a blind eye on the money coming in from Qatar but I am not in the know of money coming directly from them. Can you direct me to the source where I can get the info?

That’s the exact title of the article.

This means they lose all negotiation ‘material’ (could not find a better word, apologies).

maybe leverage or bargaining chip

that’s a deliberate geopolitical move to gain direct involvement of the US into the conflict by inciting retaliation from Iran. So they were expecting the repercussion.

It is a dick move but not as severe as attacking the head of the country. Just imagine during the WW2 the Allied assassinate the Japanese Emperor. It was a no go.

Man, If you hate someone, find a rational reasons for them to be hated. Not every wrongs can be linked to them. Use your head, not emotion.

I don’t think I have to bold the word ‘diplomatic’ for you to understand the context.

Very low probability. You don’t target head of country, that’s very ungentlemanly in diplomatic world which can result in very severe repercussion.

This is not the first time - Israeli tourists attack vigil in Cusco in support of Palestine

Yeah, it could be. May be the sentiment during that time made me think otherwise.

Anyway to quote NYT,

We found no evidence his medical care was compromised. But these documents, along with Dr. B’s account and experts’ analysis, reveal important new details about his illness and treatment.

and…

The experts said that based on the records, the treatment Dr. Li received, in general, followed the norms of that time for managing the symptoms of coronavirus patients

bur…

By the morning of Feb. 6, doctors wrote in the progress notes that Dr. Li was at risk of multiple organ failure. Several physicians we spoke to said that Dr. Li’s condition was so serious that his medical team should have at this point, or before it, considered intubating him and placed him on a ventilator — a higher level of oxygen support.

The records indicate that Dr. Li had earlier been given oxygen through a nasal tube and then an additional oxygen mask. His medical team also tried to use a noninvasive ventilator on Jan. 19, but wrote that “the patient could not tolerate.”

It is unclear why Dr. Li was not intubated. Some doctors are more reluctant to intubate young patients; sometimes the patients themselves refuse it. To this day, there is no consensus on when invasive ventilators should be used on Covid-19 patients.

and…

According to Dr. B, who arrived at Dr. Li’s intensive care ward around 9 p.m., about two hours after Dr. Li entered cardiac arrest, the hospital’s leadership pushed the medical team to use ECMO because it wanted to show the public that no effort had been spared.

But several doctors in the room argued that by that point it was too late for it to have been of any use, an assessment that six physicians we talked to agreed with. Dr. B also said putting Dr. Li on ECMO, given its invasive nature, would have been an “insult to his body.”

Nah. You’re on lemmy.world. You won’t find many of them here.

And don’t forget the tragic ending suffered by the Dr (can’t remember his name) that first brought out the covid issue, and his phone messages were leaked to the public if I am not mistaken. He was left dead with no proper care by the authority.

nothing’s really a genocide as long as ur the victor u get to write history.

As much as I don’t like like this statement, that’s indeed the facts - The powerful writes the history. They even can keep a blind on the genocidal parties and bring them o assimilate into their society as long as it is to their advantage. At least that’s what happened to Nazis luminaries that happened to move to the other side of Atlantic and behind the iron curtain.
