The per capita difference is revealing… As the most populous country in the world and a big investor in science, this doesn’t really surprise me.

The tweet seems like sinophobic garbage, sorting by absolute numbers instead of per capita. Of course a country with four times the population is going to have more papers. Sort by per capita and see where the numbers come out.

Sinophobic? How? I took it as a matter-of-fact statement, not some kind of fearful revelation or any kind of fear-mongering.
