    Wholeheartedly agree. And then we go around panicking about the authoritarian social credit shit China has. Mfer we’ve have social credit for decades

      Respectfully, that is apples to oranges. You are unable to function as a regular person in China with bad social credit. Here you can’t get loans and sometimes your employer sees.

      Comparing the American president to a cartoon character doesn’t stop you from being able to fly. You have no idea how deep China’s social credit system goes if you think it’s at all comparable to just getting higher interest rates.
