This is the distraction the linked study was talking about. I'm not sure if it happens about articles related to India, but since we are on the topic about China's article getting down-voted (anecdotally I have seen multiple times), I think we should focus on that atm.

Agreed. Not trying to divert attention from the topic at hand (like the people cited in the Harvard study do).
