So, how long before this administration adapts something similiar to China's social credit scoring system.

Say something wrong about the right people, boom, your social.credit score gets dinged. Say something right about the wrong people, your social. credit score gets dinged. Speak the truth, denounce a lie, all gets your score lowered. Your score gets dinged enough, you don't get the job you want(or a job at all). You aren't getting to live in the neighborhood you want, your drivers license is revoked, etc. etc.

With all these people who've been doxxed, fired, etc for celebrating Kirk's death, or for simply speaking the truth, somehow I don't think this is a far fetched prediction.

1. Already Have It Here

We use Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc… and it’s unofficial. Post what’s popular you have good credit. Post something unpopular you get nailed. Past posts can and will be held against you. Companies, government, and people in general use it and judge you by it, and it can get or lose you jobs, friends and opportunities. China is just honest about using it.

3. Understand that, but what China has is much more comprehensive

Mainly for the fact that their system covers not only what you do online, but also what you do in the real world.

4. I Know

What we post here and elsewhere occurs n the real world, too. It has impact and meaning and exists. We toss in video from our cell phones, emails and anything else we can find in the mix. It doesn’t occur in vacuum. The Chinese version is just official. People lose or gain jobs, hurt or help themselves or others, and make choices based on it all - same end result.

Just my 2 cents. It’s been a thing here in some form for a decade at least.

2. Wow, I had not heard about this system in China, but I'm not suprised. Rewards not for just the party members, but.....

......rewards and punishments for everyone depending, not just on their loyalty, but on their thoughts and actions. Has anyone checked Project 2025 for their version of this?

5. It was called blacklisting.

A recent example would be the Hollywood Blacklist during McCarthyism, where suspected communists and sympathizers were systematically excluded from jobs and other benefits, even jailed. Over the years POC, gays, immigrants, women, the handicapped, Jews, non-christians and many "others" have all been blacklisted in American society, and treated differently under the law. Now Republicans want to bring back the worst of blacklisting.
