Saw some dunktank posts mocking lib social credit system propaganda. Was wondering if someone could explain the actual system. I know all the US propaganda on it is bullshit, just wondering what the actual policy is, mostly so i can tell libs, or better yet potential comrades with questions about China based in weird propaganda they heard.
