It's totally about climate change, you guys

It’s not because they claim nobody is doing anything, but all western countries heavily subsidize renewables.
Modern problems require primitive solutions
I'm not sure if these are real, but I'm willing to believe them for now

Seems extreme. I doubt it’s accurate
There are thousands of Chinese students studying abroad in the US.
Maybe 10s of thousands
This list wouldn’t allow that
It's certainly lacking some context. Maybe you need to accumulate enough of these things to get sent to gulag
Maybe
If it is a point system that would make sense
To me, the weirdest ones are abstaining from alcohol and cigarettes
abstaining from alcohol, the CCP wants you drunk
how many of those boxes do you guys tick?
Counting
Can't say I've had a government official try to scan my eyeballs, but let's assume I would resist
Over 20 of them could easily apply to me
17
If I was lax in definition probably more
Just to make sure: China is inferior to some other country.
There's one
China is inferior: to just about every country in terms of freedom.
iirc if you completely avoid alcohol it's something about showing the inability to control yourself around it. It ties into the social credit score thing

I would immediately get screwed by that one
I just don't like the taste of it
I try drinking a little bit once every few months, and I can barely get through my first drink whenever I do
yeah I'd be screwed by that one too, I don't drink because I can handle it, it's too expensive for me to actually get drunk
yeah, I know that feeling too
that's part of the other reason I avoid it
I don't enjoy it, AND it's pretty freaking expensive, so what's the point of even bothering with it?
Got that backwards whoops
Still, I'm off to a great start this morning 💔
