I mean, an app that's named after the Little Red Book and which has strict moderation rules (no "Winnie the Pooh" refs, sorry) has comments that claim all the bad things you've heard about China are just American propaganda. What a surprise.

I see a lot of folks going "wow, stupid Americans really believed social credit scores were real", and meanwhile I see a detailed Wikipedia article describing the implementation of the Social Credit System by China's Central Government.

Can someone cite me a source more credible than random internet comments? Otherwise, I'ma just take this as propaganda itself.

It really is astounding how much every sinophobes source is inevitably just Wikipedia.

It's too bad the people of China aren't allowed to edit Wikipedia, and correct the facts, because of their oppressive state.
