Yeah actual credit ratng in the west was my first thought. For those of you complaining about how this is a terrible idea, the idea of credit scores already exists in the west in the form of credit rating, low scores in which can affect your ability to own a house, will weigh against you in certain jobs, and can seriously affect your entire life and there's no easy way to affect or even really understand what it is based on.

EasternBronze posted:The only people who think that Chinese society is even in the same galaxy in terms of human rights or free thought has clearly never lived there. We are talking about a place where the very concept of human rights is directly proscribed by the government. Quite. It's not as if there are other governments that have documents pertaining to human rights and what they are and that no two can seem to come to a consensus about what exactly they are. I apparently have more human rights if I move to America (including the right to own a gun) and less if I move elsewhere. This is in no way a political tool created by governments, of course, only those crazy orientals would do something like that.

I guess I find it hard to see it as anything but the worst kind of hand-wringing liberal hypocrisy when people fret and worry about how bad those inscrutable Chinese are when there are equal, if not bigger, violations of human rights closer to home that are completely glossed over, presumably because they happen to "scary people", as if human rights are not something that should be given universally. The UK and the US are two signatories to the UDHR yet you can find many, many examples of these two countries wilfully breaking this whenever it's politically convenient to do so. That's the thing about human rights: They're for everyone, all the time, or they're for no-one, ever.

Friendly Tumour posted:Find some other thread if you want to complain about that poo poo. Posting really long-winded idgaf rants is extremely retarded. Thank you. You see this post? It's the rhetorical equivalent of the Chinese anti-suicide net. The Chinese are terrible in many, many ways - out of all of the criticisms to use against them, a lovely credit rating system is by far the least important. If you really want to make a difference in the average life of a Chinese person, instead of making hand-wringing "Isn't that terrible?" points you should probably focus on more important aspects like horrendous worker conditions fuelled by outsourcing and lovely trade agreements not being enforced or outright lied about. Until then it's just putting a net up and not really looking into why people are jumping.

Powercrazy posted:Compared to the Chinese how important is it that a game developed by someone who allegedly liked a neo-nazi page be unable to sell a game on steam? An interesting hypothetical. Are the Chinese drink driving at the time? This might influence my answer.

Friendly Tumour posted:Have you ever considered making a post which is either funny, informative, or interesting on any level. Your bending of the facts and denial of contradictory evidence is good, but you're going to have to work on your putdowns if you want to reach the high standards of the CPC. I'm sorry I suggested it in the first place.
