This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

The exact same as the Chinese "social credit" system that people whine about, except this one is capitalism based, so it's ok.
Mine doesn't go down when I call the government a bunch of cunts.
And the Chinese one still goes down if you're poor.
100% correct.
Your government would just imprison you and/or deport you instead.
many different names for the same but different system that is all about control and sugation of the masses.
Chuck it onto the stinking pile of insurance and privatized healthcare.
How do you think "social credit" would be handled if the US were a socialist/communist country?
1:1 same as credit score - in the worst possible way
Is that relevant to anything? Credit score bad. Next.
I started paying cash for everything about 30 years ago. Haven't needed my credit score since so I froze my credit score access. There have been no downsides.
Nah, it's good for me to know the risk before I lend to someone. Only bad borrowers are against their reputation re repayment history not being public.
Without credit scores, nepotism and bigotry are what decides who gets loans, since lenders will have nothing but 'vibes' to go off of. No thanks.
Who are you lending to?
