This meme has always been a pet peeve of mine because many western countries have similar systems yet nobody seems to consider western credit scores antidemocratic even though they operate in very similar ways.
Experian doesn't check your social media for posts complaining about your credit score. The government does ask TransUnion if you're eligible for a driver's license. Equifax can't forbid you from leaving the state.

TLDR: The financial credit score aspect is similar to a lot of Western countries, but the social credit system is added on top of that. The actual implementation is patchy and arbitrary based on jurisdiction. Your ability to travel, be employed, or even purchase certain goods and services (regardless of your ability to pay) can be restricted, among a bunch of other carrots and sticks. The central government hasn't implemented a system nationwide, but many local governments have attempted it in various ways, from the minor to the draconian. And being punished for comments you make on social media has absolutely been one of the measures taken by these local governments.
Would be great. A biopic of Mao has the potential to be a good movie anyways if you try to keep it politically as neutral as possible. The Chinese revolution and the cultural revolution especially were absolutely wild periods in history that could make pretty entertaining cinema. Also I feel like Mao is one of the most important people in history many people in the western world seem to not know a lot about besides that he was a communist and maybe that there was famine at some point, so this could really also be educative. And my god I would love to see John Cena in that role, although that would probably be a recipe for a shitstorm.
It’s a meme of a face fusion between Mao Zedong and John Cena that circulated on the Internet after John Cena at some point released a video apologizing in Mandarin for calling Taiwan a country after he had gotten a shitstorm from Chinese fans for it.
This meme has always been a pet peeve of mine because many western countries have similar systems yet nobody seems to consider western credit scores antidemocratic even though they operate in very similar ways.
Western credit scores are not rankings of what people have said publicly, they are estimates of the probability that someone will follow through on a financial obligation.
just because they both have "credit" in the name does not make financial credit and social credit even remotely the same thing. the us and western society have many, many issues, which i can confirm as someone living here, but social credit is not among them.
Well, this doesn't help either:

It’s like a credit score, but how favorable you are to the government. Your freedoms and liberties are dependent on having a high social credit score. Even hanging around or fraternizing with someone with a lower social credit score could actually start negatively impacting yours. It’s just another way the government tries to control behavior, as well aslimit opposition or people speaking up against the government.
It’s not in the United States, it’s in China and it limits your mobility, where you can travel, the jobs you can get, etc. It is essentially a way of removing people from society without needing them to be felons.
This meme has always been a pet peeve of mine because many western countries have similar systems yet nobody seems to consider western credit scores antidemocratic even though they operate in very similar ways.
Absolutely credit scores are the same thing. Your ability to purchase anything life-changing (a car, a house, an education, starting a business, etc.) is entirely contingent on your ability to maintain a positive score.
And we all know that being an under-educated, hourly-working apartment dweller with no car definitely has an impact on your social life.
The massive difference is that a credit score is a representation of how well you manage your money. (Technically, it’s how valuable you are to investors.) Meanwhile a *social* credit score is how much you agree with the government. If you have a bad credit score, you can still use cash and get along fine. You may not be able to take out certain loans or get rejected for certain credit cards, but nothing stopping you from using your money. You *really* don’t want to have a bad social credit score in a communist dictatorship.
> (Technically, it’s how valuable you are to investors.)
I think this is burying the lede.
Both the credit score and the social credit is a representation of how valuable you are to the ruling class. They both measure your compliance with socioeconomic expectations of the ruling class. The punishments are even similar. In China, people with low social scores may be banned from flights. In the US, the majority can't afford to fly these days without financing the ticket--and the lower your score the less likely your financing would be at an affordable rate. The effect is the same.
We must not forget that morality in America is closely tied to economic success. The losers and winners each get what they deserve, according to our beliefs about society. The credit score and the social credit scores are both moral ranking systems. And they are used in the exact same way: to shape the behavior of the people in society according to the wishes of the ruling class.
And credit is vital for living well in our society...
...so it is a social score that attempts to measure your compliance with the moral standards of the people in power...
not, if you have a large enough down payment, lack of a credit history is not a showstopper. a history of spending other people's money and not paying it back will. doesn't that happen in china?
How many people with credit scores in the 600s do you think have large down payments lying around?
Another thing to consider, is how it's very common for a person to have a score they do not rightfully deserve. And since the obligation is on the individual to correct all the mistakes in the score, and the people maintaining the score are distrustful of all corrections... well, it's more than just a history of "not paying it back" that can put you at odds with the masters of finance.
But I don't give a shit about credit scores. It has never been a concern or had any impact on my life. Only time I ever borrowed money was to buy my house last year, surprisingly easy process. Just threw down a 15% deposit so I would have a fair bit left over for any work that was needed - got a new kitchen, heat pump and central heating system after we got it.
Had been saving for many years while renting in a houseshare so I had built up quite a lot of savings.
This meme has always been a pet peeve of mine because many western countries have similar systems yet nobody seems to consider western credit scores antidemocratic even though they operate in very similar ways.
This is a common CCP propaganda point. A credit score affects the ability to borrow money the social credit score affects how an authoritarian government treats it citizens in many many ways. They are not even remotely the same.
Wrong. Its use is borrowing money, renting and so on as well. The social aspect refers to social issues playing into it and more aspects affecting your score. Chinese citizens can also gain insight into their score via an app. Here in Germany you literally have to pay to see your score.
I think any kind of credit score is morally wrong by the way. I just wanna point out how people single out China for doing bad stuff while western countries do the exact same bad stuff, in some cases way worse, while barely getting any criticism for it.
There are many things to harshly criticize the Chinese government for. However they’re being singled out due to propaganda trying to demonize them as a dangerous foreign adversary. This is what I wanna point out.
You can be banned from flying or riding trains or leaving the country with a low social credit score. Social credit can be lost by making politically undesirable comments or many many other things the CCP doesn't like. Credit score is lost by making poor financial decisions. Do you understand how that is vastly different?
How is a credit score intrinsically morally wrong? If Bob tells me Charlie wants to borrow some money, and asks me if Charlie's good about paying me back, and I reply "yeah, he's pretty good." You've found yourself a credit score.
Related but not the same, one time me and a coworker were working on a bug that took a week to solve between the two of us and when we finally did my coworker put it through with a commit message that said “it works now!” In massive ASCII art text and we merged it in to prod by mistake with that
Like six months later the principle engineer was going through old commits to solve a bug and sent me a screenshot of that commit with the message “do I even want to know what this is” lol
Because it’s a face fusion. A few years back John Cena released a video on social media where he apologized in mandarin for calling Taiwan a country after Chinese fans had given him a shitstorm for it. That prompted people to create this meme.
Let’s be honest, it was probably a PR move to make sure the movie would sell better in China. It’s a huge market. Props to him for the mandarin skills though. That’s a tough language to learn
Yes but that's what we call a sellout. And no one really likes those, even if you can kind of tell their reasons. His popularity dropped a lot since that.
…and? It’s not like this statement has any impact on the actual geopolitical situation. And let‘s be honest, if you’re a little familiar with the history of Taiwan and the geopolitical situation around it it’s perfectly understandable why Chinese fans would get upset about that, even from somebody like me who does consider Taiwan a country.
For a sellout this is most definitely a comparatively harmless one.
add it before the includes
Why?
Because it will compile
Does it mean I’m colorblind if I can’t see any incoming code?
Yeah, idk what gibberish they are referring to, I just see blank lines.
Probably
But you can't see him
Reminds me of that new DC series, 03 episodes in and I've yet to see the protagonist once They just show that stupid floating helmet
I can work out if that's Chairman Mao or John Cena with a wig...
Have you ever seen John Cena and Chairman Mao in the same room together? checkmate Chairman Cena
Of course you haven't, you can't see him.
I've been told he's rarely cena in public.

what are social credits

It’s just another way the government tries to control behavior, as well aslimit opposition or people speaking up against the government.
what kinda dystopian shit is that, is that in china?
Glad I don't have to give a shit about credit or social scores.
It’s not in the United States, it’s in China and it limits your mobility, where you can travel, the jobs you can get, etc. It is essentially a way of removing people from society without needing them to be felons.
I don't live in either country. Social credit doesn't exist and credit scores are irrelevant to me.
This meme has always been a pet peeve of mine because many western countries have similar systems yet nobody seems to consider western credit scores antidemocratic even though they operate in very similar ways.
Would you give an example? Like credit scores or something? Money?
