Show Notes

In a special "ripped from the headlines" edition of Drunken Philosophy, Connor and Dan discuss the semi-recent establishment of a social scoring system in China that's straight out of an episode of Black Mirror. This autocratic, dystopian nightmare begs the question: What is society's role in the betterment of its people? Hopefully, the Alibaba surveillance network isn't listening in on this episode, because we may or may not say some disparaging things about oppressive capitalistic regimes!
