Social Credit Scoring
On June 9, a Chinese fishing boat struck and sank a Philippine fishing boat in the Spratly Islands. The Philippine boat sank off Reed Bank in the Spratly Islands, and the Chinese boat left the area without attempting to rescue 22 fishermen in the water. Typical behavior of the Navy of the People’s Republic of China (all “civilian” Chinese fishing boats are part of the Chinese Navy).
It’s already in place in much of China and based upon discussions that I’ve had with people in major cities in China, the coercion is in place and it depending on where you stand, it works. The system ranks everyone based on their social credit. If you marry somebody that is not Han Chinese, your ranking drops. If you criticize the local or national government, that all-important ranking drops. And so forth.
As with private credit scores, a person’s social score can move up and down depending on their behavior. The exact methodology is a secret. However playing games on the Internet too long, buying luxury items in excess (unless you’re elite), a bad driving record, posting on social media, etc. will spike your score. And everyone knows that if you’re part of the party elite, the rules do not apply.
Naturally. A bad social credit score can keep you from traveling on a train, restricting your travel outside of China, reducing your internet speed, banning you and your family from attending good schools, 17 people who refused to carry out military service last year were barred from enrolling in higher education, applying for high school, or continuing their studies, Beijing News. You can’t register to stay in a nice hotel, can’t get better paying jobs, and being black listed publicly/socially shamed. There are also incidents reported where the government will take your dog from you because of your low score. Want a credit card, so sorry. Orwellian tactics are alive and well. Yet, it’s the Red China blues for those who are not elite, and are subject to the often subjective social score.
Intentional Ramming

A Vietnamese ship operating nearby rescued the Philippine crew.
The action most annoying to the Manila government is the Chinese abandonment of the Filipino fisherman in the sea. That establishes a preliminary basis for culpability, if not deliberation.
This year Chinese boats, coast guard ships and navy ships have become more aggressive in the Spratly Islands as US and allied ships have increased their freedom of navigation and other operations.
The Chinese fishing boats backed by coast guard or naval ships have driven Philippine fishing boats from Scarborough Shoal and other fishing grounds. A deliberate ramming is certainly not unprecedented.
The Philippines are learning the disconnect between Chinese diplomatic entreaties and maritime practices. It’s all part of the Long March, to make the world China.
Hong Kong
The Chief Executive closed Hong Kong government offices for the rest of the week. The Legislative Council has not yet announced when it will next attempt to convene a session to debate the extradition amendments.
Some demonstrators said they will return to the streeets to prevent that from taking place. The Civil Human Rights Front, one of the organizers, said it has applied for a demonstration permit for another mass rally on Sunday, the 16th.
China – Helping to Make Japan Great Again
A US and Japanese naval task group is operating in the South China Sea. The USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76) and the Japan Maritime Self Defense Force’s (JMSDF’s) aircraft-carrying destroyer, JS Izumo (DH-183), held a joint naval exercise in the South China Sea from 10 to 12 June.
The USS Ronald Reagan, JS Izumo, JS Akebono (DD-108), and JS Murasame (DD-101) conducted communication checks, tactical maneuvering drills and liaison officer exchanges designed to address common maritime security priorities and enhance interoperability at sea.
An open source naval locator map placed the USS Ronald Reagan Carrier Strike Group in the South China Sea, south of the Paracels, east of central Vietnam. The Chinese have not yet commented on this show of force.
The JS Izumo, at 27,000 tons, is the largest naval combatant in the JMSDF for now. However, the Japanese government has approved the construction of two full-size aircraft carriers.
For most of the post-World War II era, no Asians, including the Japanese, sought the reconstitution of Japanese naval power. Chinese leaders were in the forefront in denouncing any Japanese military activity outside Japan, regularly reminding Japanese leaders to review their recent history and its outcome. But China is working hard now to convince the Japanese that they need to build a navy to halt China’s imperialism.
For a time, North Korea seemed like a primary driver in Japanese military development, after it test launched a ballistic missile over Japan in 1998. Despite Kim Jong Un’s aggressive missile test program in 2016 and 2017, the Chinese naval threat emerged to eclipse the North Koreans.
China is a bad neighbor, unless you want to be folded into the worker’s paradise and ship your money along the Belt Road to China.
I hate communism whether it's from the ChiComs, the Russians, the Cubans, it's all bad and all about control. The people who cry for the "utopia" of socialism are misguided and don't realize eventually that becomes tyranny and a wonder life for the elites but a poor, miserable existence for everyone else.
But Biden said they are no threat!
Before he said they may be.
Fortunately we don't have restrictions on us based on social standing.
Except fore Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram, wireless network in the hospital I'm visiting that won't allow access to bloggers who mention guns, etc.
Netflix episode called 'Nosedive' lays out how all of this social ranking works out, and this 35 minute long episode was filmed nearly 3 years ago:
A gal is in the upper 'elite' rankings, but is a social climber and continues to try and get better and better rankings, and then when a childhood friend becomes a celebrity (who is her 'better') and invites her oldest friend to her wedding, 'cha-ching!'…instant social points, although she and the old friend haven't been in touch in years.
Things spiral out of control, however, (nose dive, as it were) when she fails to thank a cab driver, who deducts points, then it's this and that and fairly quicky she loses so many points that she becomes an 'undesireable.'
And ends up in prison. Spoiler alert. Oh, wait…I think I should have said that before all of this…
Sorry. (Not sorry).
One wonders if the aggressor fishing boat was painted blue and in good condition… If so, it was a PLA-N auxiliary, not a regular fishing boat per se.
USA Social Credit Scoring, or a variant, is on the shelf only because Shillary lost. Remember, "We have to pass it to see what is in it?"
My impression is that Chinese society is already pretty regimented, and pretty much toes the line, without this sort of ever present nanny state over their shoulder. Maybe I am wrong on this? Enlighten me.
So you live your life and do your job and if there are no major screw ups, you get left more or less alone. Now they want to micro manage everything ,all the time- the net result may be the exact opposite of what the party elites want- the peasants, formerly believing themselves to be free, will get a constant lesson on how they are NOT free. Sounds like a perfect way to create extremely angry people, who become expert in repressing their emotions. Pretty sure old Nick Machiavelli would caution against this approach. A parallel- like a lid on a pot, loosely secured, that bubbles over once in a while- and some smart guy decides to clamp the lid down tight.
I’m with you, Cube
Biden is a fool.
Yes, isn’t it interesting how your betters at Google and Facebook are copying the Communist Chinese.
Fredd, that could be our future if we weren’t armed…Orwell’s description of a boot stomping on a human face forever.
My sense is that it was.
The law of the sea is such that if it was innocent, the Chinese would have rescued fellow fishermen.
WSF, your social score has tanked along with the rest of we despicable undesirables.
Most Chinese in China live their life trying to think like everyone else.
But there are sparks of freedom here and there and that just won’t do. Honk Kong is a good example. As you say, a covered pot is unstable
Hmmmm. Social Credit Score. It could run like this:
Post something on social media saying that 10 year trannoes shouldn't dance at kindergartens.
Get deplatformed.
Get banned from the banking system.
Get sued for hate speech.
And publicly shamed by the media.
Well that could never happen here.
We are certainly following in their wake thanks to the evil, corrupt, lying mainstream media
Communist China's Social Credit System reminds me of the Cultural Revolution, except done via computer. Same results. People being denied services, having to be 're-educated' or 're-scored' and such.
Just without the ugly clothes and little red book. Now, it's a little red tab on the computer.
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
And just wait until that great unwashed middle-class that is marrying foreign women hit the Han Ceiling. Social unrest will get quite frisky as we see divorces, murders, selling of Han-class daughters for huge amounts of cash… wait, isn't that already happening?
But is it low enough to get me a bed by the stove?
