I have to look at each article in it's context. It's the only article ever published in that area of research under that name, in two unrelated locations. It's highly likely to be either a bot written fake article that has hijacked the authors name, a common tactic used by predatory journals that is now also being exploited for political purposes. The two sites have not provided any peer review as yet.
Even if it's genuine it's a non-specialist publishing an article on a highly specialist subject, so in other words just another opinion like the rest of us! Twitter isn't peer review.
Nice article published HERE in Arstechnica on the problems with Pre-Print archives.
