This is crazy. I mean even if they want to implement this insanely crazy system. Blocking FOOD! Is not humane.
The future
This will be our fate unless we resist.
I never saw anything like this when I was working in China.
Absolutely horrific
Insane
If it’s so insane then why do people go with it?
Yawn... My family is justifying genocide for whatever reason. Nothing will wake these people up.
Power in numbers. This is why you rebel and burn state houses to the ground. They're accepting it.
creepy.

This will be the US in 20 years
It’s not okay and it’s probably coming in the US sooner than what people expect. The solution is to grow a circular economy based on alternative uncensorable medium of payments such as crypto or goldbacks. Holding some of those instruments is necessary but not sufficient.
So I noticed that this has been making the rounds here on Nostr.
As someone who has lived in China for a few decades I have no idea what this person is talking about. While it is true that you need to verify on payment apps like Alipay and Wechat, there's never been a time when I was required to verify via facial recognition.
I have no idea what is actually going on in this video, but I am fairly certain it has nothing to do with accessing payment platforms.

Keep buying guns and ammo while you still can! They will just go around the Constitution. With this system we will all eventually get flagged for no specific or defined reason. Guilty until proven innocent.
its very unclear whether this video is what its setup to be. I fell for this as well at first, but apparently she isn't using her own account and has to verify with this one particular payment method. also the video is rather old.
while I still have problems with this regardless, it cant be taken as an example for a dystopian china. Just watch the new proposed bills and noone needs a video like this. I can also recommend https://www.eff.org https://www.icij.org/ https://reclaimthenet.org/ for any more news
Bitcoin wins or this is all of us.
