Until today, I didn’t realize that individuals are now being assigned ESG scores that some institutions use to decide whether they will do business with a person.
I obviously knew about ESG scores that huge investment firms are using to force corporations to conform to ideological demands. I knew that in some cases, prominent individuals or troublemakers have been blackballed by banks and other firms. And, of course, I know that some companies that sell politically incorrect items are getting deplatformed by PayPal and even web providers.

But I didn’t know that an industry has sprung up to analyze individuals’ purchases, carbon footprint, and other characteristics to inform banks and other businesses regarding whether they should do business with you.
Paying attention yet?
Personal ESG scores are a social credit system of tyranny based on ESG fraud and arbitrary power.

It is a full-scale social credit system being built out. Only it isn’t the government per se doing this, but rather companies that aggregate information about you and sell it to actors who want to isolate dissenters from their ideological commitments.
It is as if Xi Jinping decided to use capitalist methods to create a Chinese-style social credit system. When I say James’ tweet above I looked into the claim, and sure enough, personal ESG scores exist and companies will calculate yours and sell it to people interested.
