    Why do you bring up race? Is there anything that would imply that?

    People are lazy and incompetent as fuck, and it’s been an industry wide problem that publishing companies in general have lower and lower standards of quality.

      He didn’t bring up race, he brought up location. Like, you’re the one that brought up race? If it was one American reviewer and one Australian reviewer and this poster said “the Austrian caught it”, would you have made the same comment you just did?

      What if the “reviewer based in India” is white?

      Edit: I am a ijit, I actually agree with you, and my “what if person based in india is white” should be directed at the guy you’re replying to.

      I brought it up purely as speculation, as one possible explanation for why the process was not properly followed. I don’t have any experience with publishing companies, whether for science journals or otherwise.
