Comment on The Russian State Social University Is Developing a Social Rating System "We"parent

Comments

This feels just like just another AI history, but I will imagine that is a real history

When you reach the obsolete status then what?

... Then, cannon meat. The same as currently. Prison holidays program to visit Syria

Russia is actively looking for more soldiers and this system would be very useful in a few years to order the next meat wave (and most of all to justify it to the public eye).

Then the system will meet systemic corruption making it useless. The game will be ringed, and the mobster will buy extra points of honesty for his rapist son, while the teacher and the peasant, unable to pay in dollars, will be sent to a job of testing landmine triggers by a special selector robot.

Russian people are being pressure-cooked very slowly but surely until they realize, too late, that they will not be spared. Not even with their decent, but not exceptional social score. The new national animal of Russia is not the bear anymore, is the boiled frog

In any case, the history seems (very) fake

What makes you think that the game is not currently riged? The country is led by a Chekist junta. They throw economic migrans from the former USSR states and other non-ethnic Russians in prison for whatever motives, then they send them to Ukraine to be "pardoned". This social score is just an attempt to copy China and to rig the game even more. Except Russia is not China, a country of 1.4bn people and 10x Russia's GDP.
