Interesting. The facts as presented is: No, it's fiction.

China's "Social Credit Score System" - Fact or Fiction?​

Western government & the Western media have deliberately lied about China operating a central "social credit score" system driven by political and ideological criteria.

However the same Western sources admit upon further examination that this is a myth, that no such system exists, and the multitude of systems China does use are for tracking and punishing what would be considered serious offenses anywhere.

So some video of a guy flapping his gums for 26 minutes. Is there a text I can read? I may be interested in his story, but why doesn't he provide his script?

Nope! He does videos.

Edit to add: YOU'RE IN LUCK! I figured out a way you can read the text!

Turn on 'CC' and speed up the video as fast as it will go and you can read the subtitles!
