 I'm worried about China. Oh yeah? What about it? Well, more I'm worried about the example they're setting, and that Western governments will start implementing their technocratic oppression style to turn us all into a bunch of brainwashed, homogeneous obedience machines. Ah, okay, so what makes you think Chinese people are all brainwashed and homogeneous? Oh my god, don't you watch the news? Have you not heard of their social credit score system? The state censorship and propaganda these people are subjected to? The CCP literally doesn't let them have access to Western social media platforms because our free thought and democratic values might interfere with their conformity policing. How have you not heard about this? It's in the news constantly. Constantly? Oh yeah, it's like a major news story all the time. All across the political spectrum too. Fox News, CNN, The Washington Post, alternative media too like Info Wars and the Epoch Times, even lefty YouTubers like Vosh talk all the time about how bad it is in China. All the time. Okay, so because you're being given the same message by all of the Western media you consume, you're worried about the enforcement of thought conformity in China. Oh yeah, of course. And this is why you're worried that at some point in the future, that kind of brainwashing and homogeneity might someday be inflicted upon us by powerful people in the West. I mean yeah, if the CCP doesn't get to us first, did you know they're trying to take over the world? They are? Oh yeah. The Chinese want to take over the world and give us all a social credit score so we'll all think the same. How do you not know about this? Don't you ever watch TV? But how do you know it's true though? That they want to conquer us and give us a social credit score? Come on! Open your eyes. Have you seen how they treat their own population? They're genociding the Uyghurs as we speak. Millions and millions of them in Nazi-style extermination camps. Plus they deliberately released the COVID virus to hurt us after cooking it up in the lab, they're taking over Hollywood and infiltrating our political and academic institutions, and they've colonized the entire continent of Africa. Of course the CCP wants to rule us, don't you ever watch Tucker Carlson? They're truly deeply evil, and we've got to do something to stop them. Sounds like you've got this whole China thing figured out. You're right, that sounds really scary. I can't imagine what it would be like living in a thought-controlled dystopia where your rulers are brainwashing everyone into obedience and making sure everyone thinks the same about stuff. Yeah, fine, finally you get it. I'm glad you've come around. Honestly, you're the first person I know who didn't already understand these things about China. I bet. So do you think it will happen? Do you think our government will implement a social credit score system to make us all believe lies and propaganda like the Chinese? You know, I wouldn't worry about it.
