You're literally trying to carry the same derail into a new thread where it's even less on-topic? Here, I made a new post for you for your derail: https://news.ycombinator.com/item…

I think this one will stay, but mainly because the content is an inoculation against the kind of trolling that usually leads to China threads getting buried. I do have an irrationa…

It might be a fact (I don't know), but certainly it detracts from your point. I think you should edit out the stuff about her.

I agree as well. Maybe she's uneducated and unintelligent, I don't know anything about her, but there are more polite ways of saying that and it distracts from the overall point.

I doubt it, since that's not at all what the paper describes. Here's a quote from the abstract: > In contrast to prior claims, we show that the Chinese regime's strategy is to avoi…

You should actually read the paper. An IP user making edits to a controversial Wikipedia page is nothing like what this paper is talking about. To summarize: 1. The Chinese governm…
