Church of JeffI have a conspiracy theory I believe in that I have no solid evidence for.
People talk about China and their Social Credit System where they watch you all the time?
We have that already in the US but no one talks about it.
There is a digital caste system that is being applied, even here in the US.
It is digital "redlining" segregating certain people into poverty and certain people into the "management classes" all to support the Oligarchy.

Maya Lê - MaiStoryBook on Instagram: "More on this topic⬇️ Redlining is the legal practice of denying or rejecting home loans based on color-coded maps. These maps determined whether a neighborhood was a “safe” or “risky” investment for the bank. Neighborhoods where people of color lived were often labeled as high risk and were outlines in red. This practice reinforced racial and economic segregation by keeping people of color from accessing the same financial opportunities. This story gently unpacks redlining, racial segregation, and community resilience in a way kids can understand. But most importantly, it reminds children that while systems may fail us, community will always come together to uplift each other. *I actually learned a lot about redlining from this picture book, reinforcing my stance that picture books are truly for all ages. Featuring *Main Street: A Community Story About Redlining* by @britthawthorne and @tiffanymjewell, Illustrated by David Wilkerson. Thank you to @penguinkids @kokilabooks for sharing this one with me ‼️ Comment COMMUNITY for this book, and check your DMs for a link ‼️"

Op-ed: Inclusionary for who? The quiet re-redlining of San Jose’s housing policy - San José Spotlight
San Jose is revising its inclusionary housing policy, branding the changes as “modernization” and “workforce housing.” But beneath the language, it’s the same old story: Open the doors wider to higher‑income, mostly white and affluent Asian households, and quietly close them on Black, Latino and low-income Asian families.

calendsOne of the many harmful legacies of redlining is inequity in neighborhood tree coverage:
“Tree equity: Who gets trees in their neighborhood?
Why are some neighborhoods so much greener than others? ... It turns out that neighborhoods that were historically redlined in the ‘30s and ‘40s live today with only half the tree cover of their "greenlined" neighborhood counterparts.”
https://woeip.org/featured-work/planting-trees-in-west-oakland/#equity
Neighborhoods with trees are healthier, cooler, and safer. Black & Brown neighborhoods are more likely to lack tress. That is systemic racism. The harm of redlining isn't only historical, it continues to this day.
