    It sounds like it was the sort of horrid “good citizen” system in pilot cities until it was stopped

    In 2019, the central government voiced dissatisfaction with pilot cities experimenting with social credit scores. It issued guidelines clarifying that citizens could not be punished for having low scores and that punishments should only be limited to legally defined crimes and civil infractions. As a result, pilot cities either discontinued their point-based systems or restricted them to voluntary participation with no major consequences for having low scores.

        So after many long years you finally learn what they tried to clarify to you literally every time you tried to use it as a racist cudgel

        And the only way to make the round peg fit in the square hole of your propaganda addled brain is to somehow twist it into them still being delusional and wrong?

        Eh. I guess it’s still progress.
