      My brother spent a few months there. His perception was quite different.

          Do you realize how dystopian it is that your whole life - from payments, to healthcare, to unlocking your ‘own’ dwelling - are controlled by one state owned app?

              If anything we’re trending away from a social credit system. Hopefully the constitution will forever prevent it.

                I just want to be able to read Winnie the Pooh without being sent to jail.

                  Apparently some people dream of living in Russia. Shockingly, it's not going very well.

                    @Doctor-Phibes said in China is what we dream of:

                    I just want to be able to read Winnie the Pooh without being sent to jail.

                    Don't tell anyone. You'll be fine.
