Q

China has a social media platform equivalent to Facebook called "Sesame Credit".

Like Facebook "Sesame Credit" keeps track of your on (and off) line activity, buying habits, friends, and political views.

The difference (for now) is "Sesame Credit" gives you "social credit" (political and economic status) for espousing the correct political views by giving you a higher "social credit" score.

This "social credit" score is used to determine if you're a good citizen who toes the party line. If you're a good citizen your "social credit" score increases and you have access to better jobs and better housing.

If you have a low "social credit" score because of your association with low "social credit" friends or the wrong political views, your "social credit" score decreases and you lose social and political status.

Is this the ultimate long-term goal of Facebook? To create a social media platform that will force people to become politically compliant 'good citizens' who espouse the same politically acceptable ideology?

The video is 7 mins. (Don't let the title of the video throw you off. Watch it to the end).

Super creepy. Thanks for the link.

Can’t believe I haven’t heard about this. It’s been out there for years!

Yet another reason I got off Facebook!

If you deviate from the preferred mindset you will pay!

Shun, ridicule, threats and loss of livelihood.

I read some stuff about this several months ago. So maybe they’ll quit trying to take down the truth tellers, and instead target people to ruin their lives for now, and later it’ll be off to the re -education camps or extermination/fema camps?
