Nobody thinks China is a "backwater", but it's seriously underperforming vs expectations from purported statistics. How come it only produces half the worthwhile research while having double the scientists? Something is seriously screwed up there.
- PakG1 8y agoTo be fair, I think extremely ignorant people who don't follow any updates about scientific and technological progress probably still think that China is a science backwater. But their opinions don't really matter because they don't really get involved in the conversation anyway, and at the odd times they do, they have large misconceptions like how coal usage is clean, beautiful, and good for the planet.
