The English were directly responsible for killing a million Irish people. They get hate for it, but not enough.

Politicians come from the voters. We have ilk like Trump running this country because this country is filled with ilk.

As far as I'm aware the Chinese social credit score is almost entirely propaganda.

People absolutely take this stuff seriously. The problem is the most bone headed guys are the ones likely to fall for this stuff. Once they're sucked in it's hard to convince them otherwise.

It’s easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.

Corruption is a matter of individuals rather than the form of government. Any human system is bound to be corruptible since it involves humans.

I think a strong anti corruption culture is the best defense against it.

Sad to say, but humans are the root of evil. Atrocities have been done in the name of all sorts of things, but it's always humans carrying it out.
