These things already exist. Credit scores determine whether or not you can buy a house in certain neighborhoods. People are being deported for their political beliefs. The US has the largest prison population on the planet, both per capita and sheer numbers.

I agree largely, but we still live in a society where you don’t need to pass a credit score to get groceries.
How will removing that not be seen as authoritarian?
