Is it not allowed or frowned upon by the mods and maintainer of Lemmy? Although I do respect the technology and services that Lemmy and its community have provided, I’m still looking for answer on the fact whether it’s ok/allowed to have a vocal and confident opposing view.

Also, within this community (China), Am I allowed to post things that opposes the chinese government, such as, not liking their attitude towards a certain island in the south east of china?

    And about CCP, I suppose I use that term interchangeably with the chinese government and officials and I’m sorry if that’s not accurate enough to convey my intention.

    It’s easy enough to fix: CPC. Communist Party of China. CCP is what ignoramuses use because they literally don’t know the official name.

    Also, just as a note for the future, calling all of the things in media is “100% pure unadulterated bullshit” would only highlights your lack of skill in engaging with a society/system which has more than a single news source and narrative.

    Just as a note for the future: not answering questions that were asked twice makes you look like a dishonest idiot.

    Now that we’ve exchanged our ritual insults, let’s try to return to civil discourse.

    And you can begin with, since you’re so certain that the reportage around “Social Credit” isn’t 100% pure unadulterated bullshit, your answering a simple question (repeated here for your convenience): How can my wife (or my mother-in-law or my son or my friends or my colleagues or my …) get their “Social Credit” score? Please be specific, since, apparently, expats who’ve lived here 20 years (that’s me), and people who were born here need some “informed” American to tell them how to do it. (They don’t even know that such a score exist, those ignorant fools!)

    When you answer that question—on a topic that you’re “confident” of, recall—perhaps we can go on to continued conversation. But without answering it, or without admitting that you don’t actually know shit about it, there’s really no point in continuing a conversation. You’re convinced you know it all and there would be no point in talking further.

    (For bonus points, what’s the Chinese name for this “Social Credit” program?)
