Social Credit Score Is In America: Visa Blacklisted My Business and My Family for Building Gab
Gab ^ | June 26, 2020 | Andrew Torba

Posted on 07/01/2020 9:46:46 AM PDT by C19fan

As many of you already know we learned last week that Visa blacklisted Gab and we are now unable to process credit and debit card transactions. We learned more information this week and I think it’s important that I share it as a warning for others. It’s not just Gab that is blacklisted. It’s also my family. In China there is something called the Social Credit System, which was developed by the Communist Chinese Party as a “national reputation system.” This system tracks the “trustworthiness” of individuals, businesses, and organizations. “Trustworthiness” here means total and complete submission to the Chinese Communist Party. If the Communist Party deems you to be untrustworthy, you are denied access to plane tickets, train tickets, opening and operating businesses, and more.

Remember that one of the preferred ways Hollywood and Multi National Company Contractors LAUNDER ILLEGAL PROCEEDS is to Open a Foreign Account and have a VISA DEBIT Card Issued, now ALL THAT ILLEGAL UNTAXED MONEY can be Spent anywhere in the World with your NEW Foreign VISA card. This has been going on for YEARS and Years, everybody knows it but VISA makes a Bundle LAUNDERING THEIR DRUG MONEY!!!

One of the goals of the lockdown is to condition Americans to accept this.

The write up isn’t specific but claims they are blacklisted for supporting “hate speech” which, if they are a free speech zone, is a Leftists way of saying I will cancel you by any means necessary and in this case it’s Visa bringing pressure to anyone willing to process payments for GAB.

I think GAB should look for a lawyer. If they are operating a legal business and abiding by Visa terms of service, Visa should be accountable.

One more way they silence people who don’t repeat the party line. They didn’t stop at twitter. They didn’t stop at facebook. Gab was created to escape the tyranny of the left, but they found a way to punish the people who created Gab.

We lose our job for being the significant other of someone who LIKED a post that disagrees with blm.

It’s not over yet. It’s going to get worse.

I can imagine grounds to sue, perhaps under contract theory.

It will be an app on your phone where you can report people, so as to lower their score.

Wouldn’t a Social Credit Score be similar to the old real estate redlining? I thought the Supremes outlawed redlining.
