Isn't the dystopian social credit system in China just an exaggerated propaganda? I thought its a similar system to the US credit scores.
You got the direction of your argument wrong (credit scores are a big problem and proto surveillance state stuff) but no, the social credit system is indeed worse both in terms of what it is used to punish and the means of punishment.
Not arguing, asked a question if my knowledge of a topic was right.
