The 55-year-old then added, “If they’re financially penalized for not following (the rules), which they are in China. In China, if they vary. If they stray from the path and, you know, criticize the government or… talk sh*t about anything… Like you can’t f**ing buy plane tickets. You’re not going anywhere.”

The BJJ black belter understands that people do not need another reason to tie their lives to a social credit system. However, knows that the Chinese government implements heavy penalties for speaking against their rule or spreading any anti-political content on social media. As the policies extend their control over citizens’ virtual accounts as well.
