Not an American or a liberal, and yes, china is authoritarian. Is america better? No. The credit score system in the US is also bad.

Authoritarian is a meaningless pejorative.

The social credit score isn’t real.

I am a Chinese minority living in China. You really don’t know what you’re talking about when it comes to China. You very clearly have done 0 research beyond maybe reading RFA. You should be quiet until you have done some proper research.
