We Chinese feel ashamed that such bad people represent China overseas, so the government come up with Social Credit System to penalise such bad behaviour and promote better behaviour instead. This is an meritocratic way to reward good behaviour and punish bad behaviour. But if they persist with bad behaviour until their scores fall to become unacceptable, then they will be barred from buying plane tickets to fly out of China and make nuisance of themselves overseas. At least until their scores improve until it becomes acceptable for them to travel again. If this system is ever extended to Hong Kong some day, then we might seem a marked improvement in social behaviour among the people of Hong Kong.. . .

Most people in UK, US, Australia, and Canada hold the view that the Chinese people have been brainwashed by the CPC and Chinese State media and agencies. It is ironic that the same people in UK, US, Australia, and Canada have no awareness that they themselves have been brainwashed and conditioned by their own mass media exemplified by Fox, CNN, NY Times, Washington Post, NY Post, and so on concerning matters relating to Chinese people. They know little why the Chinese people are largely satisfied with their everyday lives. Some 800 million Chinese have been lifted out of abject poverty in 40 years, and the 200 million middle-class Chinese are growing in size and wealth. Well, you have seen a horde of Chinese tourists invading your big cities, haven’t you? Are they all fake Chinese tourists, maybe S.Koreans, Japanese and Vietnamese masquerading as Chinese?

We all know every government is watering their mouth at a prospect like this. Imagine the ultimate control it gives.

Check out this mind blowing respond from an intellect about the social credits system. 神州 Shenzhou: And about the Social Credit System, foreigners often complain Chinese people are rude, spit in public, smoke in non-smoking areas, jump queues, occupy multiple seats, disobey traffic laws, jaywalk, speed past red lights, etc when's not all Chinese people are like that. We Chinese feel ashamed that such bad people represent China overseas, so the government come up with Social Credit System to penalise such bad behaviour and promote better behaviour instead. This is an meritocratic way to reward good behaviour and punish bad behaviour. But if they persist with bad behaviour until their scores fall to become unacceptable, then they will be barred from buying plane tickets to fly out of China and make nuisance of themselves overseas. At least until their scores improve until it becomes acceptable for them to travel again. If this system is ever extended to Hong Kong some day, then we might seem a marked improvement in social behaviour among the people of Hong Kong.. . .

The Chinese governments way of thinking is why America was founded. The kings and queens did the same stuff just in a different way.

I seen an old twilight zone episode like this, guy had a mark on his forehead that forbids anyone from talking to him. When anyone seen it they backed away, afraid of the consequences. His family, friends, colleagues, strangers, even the doctors at the hospital all refused to speak to him because he had the mark of shame. 😐

One day the Chinese people are going to wake up and realize how many of them there are. There will always be strength in numbers.
