China's National Social Credit System a Model for Far Left Progressives?

[Andy Asaro]

This would be right up the Far Left Progressives alley if they ever gained full control of the government. Guess which group would be on the blacklist?

Twitter

Excerpt:

The capital city will pool data from several departments to reward and punish some 22 million citizens based on their actions and reputations by the end of 2020, according to a plan posted on the Beijing municipal government’s website on Monday. Those with better so-called social credit will get “green channel” benefits while those who violate laws will find life more difficult.

The Beijing project will improve blacklist systems so that those deemed untrustworthy will be “unable to move even a single step,” according to the government’s plan. Xinhua reported on the proposal Tuesday, while the report posted on the municipal government’s website is dated July 18.

The final version of China’s national social credit system remains uncertain. But as rules forcing social networks and internet providers to remove anonymity get increasingly enforced and facial recognition systems become more popular with policing bodies, authorities are likely to find everyone from internet dissenters to train-fare skippers easier to catch -- and punish -- than ever before.

Not a far cry, by any stretch of the imagination, to the logical consequence of "bad social behavior" that is predicted in Rev 13:16-17.

Exactly. It's not that big of a stretch to say it can happen here. It is already happening with Twitter and Facebook IMO

China Offers $86,000 Reward For Snitching On Porn

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-...snitching-porn

Excerpt:

Incentivizing neighbors to snitch on neighbors, co-workers to snitch on co-workers and family members to snitch on family members has been a hallmark of Communist Rule since the rise of Stalin. Now, the Chinese Communist Party is using these age-old techniques to root out a popular, if illegal, blemish on Chinese society: Pornography.

After sentencing a writer of erotic stories to 10 years in prison in a high-profile case, China has doubled the reward for reporting the illegal publishing of pornography to about 600,000 yuan ($86,500), according to Abacus. The regulator in charge of enforcing the policy is called "Clean up the Pornographic, Strike the Illegal". It will also reward citizens who expose publishing of anything that "endangers ideological security, cultural security, physical and mental health of minors."
=======================================

Although you might agree morally with eliminating porn you can see how this reward system will be used to frame people and ruin their lives even if they aren't looking at or publishing porn.

China Offers $86,000 Reward For Snitching On Porn

Not bad.....TRUMP paid more than that for it.

[lamboguy]

we beat the Chinese to this disaster, over here they call it Patriot Acts, real genius's that allowed that one for our country. this is why i loved President George Bush so much, with a stroke of the pen he gave a good screw job and it didn't feel so great! The Patriot Act ran out in 2015, so what does the congress do, they pass the same laws and now call it USA Freedom Act and our President signed the law back then.

As a libertarian. I can see both sides deploying this. They already are tracking your e mails, your phone calls and who knows what else. The 4th amendment is practically dead. Plus, this Judge that Trump just got appointed is from the right and Kavanaugh is a known corporate suck up and anti rights kind of judge. The grab assing issue is just show, the more important problem is that "the people" are losing a the voice, checks and balance of the judiciary.


Both sides are not color, religious or sexual orientation blind. What I mean is they use these "differences" as weapons to further their cause. Its 2018 and fools cant even grow up and look past our differences. Putting people in to sides. And this crap switches around by whats politically in "vogue" at the moment. Earlier the right favored "amnesty" and open borders, now its......gotta fear those brown people. Both sides have convinced people that Muslims are evil.


China has face recognition technology that i'm sure we do too. They just are not afraid to flex it. We keep secrets better than they do. So ours is probably even better. They released an agent in 20 million people and told him to "hide out". He was in a police car within 8 minutes. So, while you clowns are busy fighting over the "left" and the "right". The people in power, the ones that really don't give a **** what you fight over as long as you are divided are slowly gnawing away at your freedom while you bend over and pucker up.

This "Social Credit Plan of China's should be bone chilling to anyone who values freedom.
The 'socialists' who've been infiltrating the Democrat Party bear close watching. If they ever got their way,...

It is scary to see the quality of some of the new age dems.
And the absolute stupidity the display.

The 'score' will restrict movement in the country if it is too low .. no plane or train travel for the low scorers.


Some people are predicting the same could occur in the USA if the progressive socialists get more control, including limits on travel, fuel and electricity.
