I'd think, for someone who loves China so much, you'd understand the value of a social score telling you that you're doing a bad thing. Guess you only like to listen when that score is managed by a fascist regime.
I have never seen a "social credit score" system. People are more concerned about the household registration (hukou) system. What you refer to as the "social credit card" is actually the social security card. In China, there is a credit rating system called Zhima Credit (Sesame Credit). If you owe a lot of money to the bank, your credit rating will be blacklisted, restricting your ability to make high-end purchases. It seems like you are very good at propaganda. Are there bad things in China? Yes, but Western media often focus their reports on what they consider taboo topics, creating a stereotypical image of China that makes Chinese people look strange. I believe Western media can't come up with other accusations, so they project their own wrongdoings onto China. Take the example of Xinjiang cotton: Chinese people can't even conceive of forced labor because we believe that human labor is more expensive than machines, which are faster and more efficient. However, the US had cotton slave plantations in the past, so you hype up this issue.
Tell us more about this fascist regime.
BTW, what’s the US up to at the moment? Oh right, genocide.
And what’s Canada been up to lately? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Indian_residential_school_gravesites
Nah that would be the FICO score at the USA. The only fascist regime is the USA

Brother, you are just willfully ignorant.
And spamming.
Ignorant? Do you imagine that we haven’t been exposed to exactly the same imperal core propaganda our entire lives as everyone else here? Generally speaking, we know everything that you know. The only difference is that we took the time & effort—and had the intellectual honesty—to learn more.
I feel “the only fascist regime is X” does a huge disservice to a lot of fascists around the world that are hard at work making everyone’s life crappier every single day.
And that’s without going into particulars about the identity of X.
