Is this shit true?

Is China hell on earth?

Social score -> Loyalty to the regime?

The complicated truth about China's social credit system

China's social credit system isn't a world first but when it's complete it will be unique. The system isn't just as simple as everyone being given a score though

I can't wait till we have that here, I'm going to go full blown lunatic fringe and drive that number down to the square root of negative one.

I'm going to need two quarts of motor oil, a dwarf, and a chest protector.

Nah, it will be ushered in by the GOP and you'll be all for it, and not understand why anyone would have a problem with it.

I remember reading about this way back but thought it too hyperbolic and propaganda like to believe it really true.

Hi-res cameras all over China. They recognize who you are and inject their AI interpretations of your activity into your digital dossier. If they don't like you by virtue of your dossier, they restrict you. It's automatic.
