I was going to say "coming soon to an America near you" but come to think of it we have this already, it's called Twitter. The left has used it to destroy the lives of many nonbelievers. "Consequences" for wrongthink and all that.

This is just a state run version of that I guess.

China launches app for citizens to report anyone who has 'mistaken opinions' or 'denies the excellence of socialist culture'

They are expanding their social credit system.

Look up Haidilao Hot Pot Restaurants. 935 locations around the world including the U.S. They have a bunch of security cameras that send data back to China.

Or you can read it here at my blog.

"Praise the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) on social media and you will be given a higher score, potentially leading to benefits such as priority for school admissions, free gym services, shorter wait times at hospitals and other benefits."

And people wonder why some folks have an aversion to universal government run healthcare.

Not really any different than U.S. Congresswomen AOC wanting people to report anyone putting out "misleading information" on social media.

"Mistaken opinions."

So that is what an opinion other than the leftist opinion is called these days.

I was never a fan of Rage Against the Machine. I don't like leftist messages. And I don't like rap. BUT, I really think the song Killing in the Name could actually be a theme song for those of us who still believe in freedom today. It's interesting that their leftist message of 25 years ago can now be taken as an ANTI-leftist message today. The long profane chant at the end of that song is exactly the way I feel about the leftist establishment today. And our decrepit, nauseating federal government.

Let me guess: Democrat elected officials OK'ed the installation, on one condition: That they get a copy of the video feeds too. Can't be too careful.

LOL is there an echo in here? (See my post above yours)

Funny irony: I bet the rules are easier to follow in China than vs the woke mob of SJW red guard trash that infests the US.

Sounds like an American Liberal's dream!

Sounds like something that came out of a brainstorming session at Twitter or Facebook, or the Berkeley teachers' lounge!
