It's a good reminder to treat your fellow human being as well, a human being...
I'm Australian, and this post prompted me to research the US Social Credit system. The score can determine whether or not you're accepted for home rentals, and even determine whether or not you qualify for medical treatments
You need to engage in having debt and credit in order to appease the score.
I bought an apartment recently, and I've never had a credit card or debt of any variety. When I was younger my bank would dip into negatives or reject a payment fairly regularly. In the US that could probably cost me a place to live.
And apparently the entire credit score is built up and perpetrated by these massive corporations? Like Credit Score is not even anything to do with the government, and yet it has such a pervasive effect on people's lives and their behavior.
It's straight up creepy. Dystopian vibes. How do Americans tolerate this?
What kind of miserable shithole would make it against the law to own chickens?
Stop trying to humanize a fascist.
Both countries have their issues, but certainly Xi Jinping is more trustworthy than Donald Trump.
She's such a leech on society. Congress should be limited to under retirement age to serve. So fucking sick of these dinosaurs drinking what little money is left in this society of billionaires and peasants.
The amount of hours we pour away slaving for the institution we were born into. How much of our lives do we spend doing shit we don't want to do with people who don't give a damn about us?
"He might've been a bit iron fisted at times but we're all friends here!"
Right? All the time they joke about how Trump is fat and a closet gay. Can't we just point out how much of a fascist he is and leave it at that?
I know he's a right-wing nut job now but I found Jordan Peterson really helpful in my youth. "Clean up your room", "dress like the person you went to be", "happiness is fleeting, and suffering requires constant meaning".
His old stuff was simple and straight forward, good lessons for a lost young man
The Internet has made people too easy to divide and conquer
Urgh, naming and shaming people for disagreeing with you? What a fkn sad thing to do, I'm ashamed to share the same opinion with someone as pathetic as you.
