It seems China is getting ready for something that most people in the USA and Canada don’t know about yet. Just don’t criticize that stupid Chinese ruler Xi Jinping!
I imagine Kamala Harris and the rest of America’s socialists are taking notes.
That seafood restaurant fight was fun while it lasted!
In the Haidilao Hot Pot restaurant in... Vancouver, more than 60 surveillance cameras watch 30 tables and send feeds to China. The cameras, manager Ryan Pan explains, are there to "people track" and are "part of the social credit system in China." In 2014, China's State Council issued guidelines for the establishment of a national "social credit system" by 2020, with the feeds from about 626 million surveillance cameras and smartphone scanners and with data from a multitude of sources ... For example, criticizing Chinese ruler Xi Jinping would result in the lowering of an individual's score.
Does China have a “ten most wanted” poster like we do?
If so, one could have some fun with 3-d printed masks of people on it.
Now now...
“There are consequences for low-scored individuals. As officials say, the purpose of the system is to “allow the trustworthy to roam everywhere under heaven while making it hard for the discredited to take a single step.” People with low scores have been denied social services, mortgages, and even the right to board trains and planes. There are also “interconnecting repercussions for family, friends, associates, and businesses both in and outside China,” Mitchell, an investigative journalist and co-author with McGregor of the upcoming The Mosaic Effect, tells Gatestone.”
Oh Pooh!
Like an invasion? Given who is in charge of the Federal Government right now, there's no time like the present!
Or just wear Pooh Bear merchandise,
Communist Chinese technology could put a crimp in our urban pharmaceutical trade.
Invasion of Taiwan maybe. They’re not likely to try to ship half a million Chinese infantry over here on container ships.
Xi hates to be called Pooh because that is what he looks like. Call him Winnie P-bear and maybe your social credit score won’t take the big hit!
Miss Fecund:
Your social credit account balance is overdrawn.

After World War II, Alexander Solzhenitsyn was sent to the Soviet Gulag for writing a brief derogatory comment about Stalin in a letter home. Are we headed that way?
We've nearly arrived. The medical examiner who testified in the Chauvin trial is under investigation, people get fired for their opinions, the a-holes at FB and other anti-social media sites plaster denials and provisos over opinions and facts they don't like, and laws that actually exist and make sense are either under attack or just not enforced.
