Crimes seem to be in the eye of the beholder nowadays
IMO: Political tribalism, to be more exact.
The owner-class and their lackeys will get away with much more when we compare the working class being sent to jail, 13th Amendment and all.
Just gotta make that servitude “voluntary,” with debt.
True.
IMO: People bash China for their alleged "Social Credit System," but in the US we have a credit score system and many other government agencies that are there to collect our data; it all seems like wishful thinking while also following the status quo talking points, so the American people don't pay attention to what our politicians and those in power are doing to the working class.
Well, in the US it’s all about how likely you are to repay your debt. Not, like, how many times you heil Xi or avoid eye contact with Pooh bears (I joke) (or do I?)
IMO:
Yes, playing the game how they want you to will keep you in the safe area.
If you follow the free speech news and the political tribalism in the US, you would see that we do not differ that much with the China calims being said.
It seems like every day we get closer to what negative things we say about other foreign nations.
Check out which independent journalists have been detained and which are being censored.
Can you help us out with a few names in recent years we can read about?
government? LOL! Its way worse. Corporate!
Corporations always give a backdoor for our angencies.
