The Russia’s State Social University (RSSU) has launched a “social rating” platform that claims to build a person’s “social portrait” with possible applications in future government policies.
Named “We,” the platform promises to determine a user’s comparative “social status” based on a survey that includes questions about income, family status, benefits, creditworthiness, criminal record, lifestyle and state awards, among others.
“The social rating figures don’t affect [a person’s] life, the availability of services or the career trajectory in any way,” RSSU said on the platform’s website. “But who knows what these figures will mean for you in the future?”
Observers on social media compared the platform’s name “We” to the highly influential 1921 dystopian novel of the same name by Russian author Yevgeny Zamyatin. [The novel “We” describes a world of harmony and conformity within a united totalitarian state. It inspired British author George Orwell to write his own novel, “Nineteen Eighty-Four”, which was published in 1949.]
approximately the same thing an idf soldier gets for doing the same thing.
they have social credit scores in Israel too? Is is netanyahupoints or just putinpoints as well? (better have a universal currency for war crimes, including building military headquarters under hospitals with stolen aid like hamas)
Are you saying that Ukrainians are the same as Hamas?
Nah, probably just that idf and the Russian army are both filled with ear criminals.
But why do you need to go fetch Israel as the ultimate measure that you need to understand the egregiousness of what russia is doing to Ukraine…when what russia is doing to Ukraine is both the crimes of Israel and hamas combined:
the crime of Israel’s brutality without regard for human life
and
the crime of hamas’s terroristic persistent attempt to destroy their neighbour at the expense of its own people
…there is no comparison here.
The comparison is that they both have large amounts of war criminals. You can compare sections of subjects, you know.
If you’re going to do that, you may as well just jump to american war crimes e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kunduz_hospital_airstrike or hamas https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamas_war_crimes I’m just pointing out that with russia it clear to see that there is an aggressor and a victim. When you throw in Israel-hamas in the conversation, you muddy the waters by comparing it with a 76-year-old war with brutality and a lot of bad decisions on both sides that has turned the leadership on one side into morally-bankrupt fanatics and the leadership on the other side into genocidal fascists.
Israel has neighbours telling them they should disappear every day and those neighbours will not settle for anything less, even after palestinian statehood on the table multiple times, how do you resist that?
On the other hand, nobody wants to make russia disappear, yet russia acts as desperate to destroy Ukraine, a sovereign nation as if they had been the ones invaded. It is much more despicable than hamas and israel.
Ear criminals? Are their covers that bad?
War… Not ear :)
