CHINA'S social credit system is a combination of government and business surveillance that gives citizens a “score” that can restrict the ability of individuals to take actions — such as purchasing plane/train tickets, acquiring property or taking loans — because of behaviors.
If you are on the blacklist of #socialcredit system, your face, name, I.D. No., address...will display on buses, subways, planes...for everyone to see to shame you.

It’s also possible in China to get yin-yang fish: a fish whose body is deep fried while it’s head is protected. “Speed is the key — when you prepare the fish, you can’t hurt its internal organs, so when you serve it, it can stay alive for at least half an hour,”
Personally i strongly oppose this practice
Drunken live shrimp is a Chinese dish that the shrimps are eaten while still alive.
The method of preparing is quite simple and quick - shrimps are shortly submerged in alcohol, and as soon as the effects of alcohol have taken place and the shrimps have relaxed, they are eaten.

Thread 1/
One neighborhood , with hundreds apartment buildings and tens of thousands people , have only few exits, where you need to scan your QR code COVID passport and your face to get in or out.

@AndrewKnack 2/

There are dozens of restaurants, barbershops, fruit shops, grocery stores...etc in this neighborhood, within 15 Minutes walk. But you can only get in or out of it throw the few exits by scanning your QR code COVID passport.
@AndrewKnack 3/

Be careful what you wish for!
Just one day, Chinese government uses razor wire fence and wall to turn this neighborhood into a giant prison, where you need to show your QR code COVID passport at every gate.

🇨🇳 Jinan city.

Here you need to scan your face and a QR code with your COVID passport to get into the public toilet.

China's surveillance state has become increasingly widespread and grown in sophistication last 3 years, in name of ''stop COVID from spreading''

If your QR code is yellow or red, immediately an alarm goes off. Then security guards will hunt you down and hand you over to authority... you will be locked up in your home or a quarantine camp
🇨🇳 Suqian city.

Here you need to scan your face and verify your QR code COVID passport to get into the farmers (wet) market, to buy your food.
