Social misdeeds also remove you from being able to fly in the US, maybe I'm missing something...
If I talk about the trail of tears, gaza or criticise Biden I will get put on the no fly list?
Ask Snowden, Assange, or Manning what happens to ppl who expose US war crimes.
Also the US has a ton of political prisoners: https://mronline.org/2022/08/11/the-united-states-has-many-political-prisoners-heres-a-list/
There are people looking at 20 year prison sentences for talking about Gaza you fucking boob
As I watch the goalposts flee into the horizon I ask you: should talking about something outside with a bunch of other people around you be a compounding factor?
Also, you credulous fucking idiot, what do you think happened to civil rights organizers? (The ones who weren't murdered)
As if you don't already believe the dumbest fucking shit imaginable
What exactly is your point?
Quite possibly. Depending on how loud and active you are about it.
Yes if you say in a social setting you are going to kill the president, or if you called in a bomb threat to an airline, these are social nonos that can get you on the no fly list.
That's litterally not the question I asked though is it?
If YoU siMPlY MurDEr SomEOne it’S A sOCiaL NonO
If. You. Say.
I understand and you’re trying to critique “social nonos” (laws) so where do you draw the line? You can generally say whatever opinion about someone but you can’t say whatever you want to do to someone.
In another comment, I have stated that myself.
I am saying that the social credit system was attempted and they had people banned for e.g. flying. Which makes it reasonable to assume that a really bad social credit score would ban you from flying as well. As the social credit system was experimental, and apparently failed, it is impossible to say what it could have been.
When international news talked about the social credit system and it being in pilot cities, they asked themselves what could be and communicate it as such. But people meme'd it and people believed the meme nonsense version.
