If a majority of your population decided to overthrow your government, who would the police side with? That’s your answer.
If the police would side with the average citizen, then your society is egalitarian. But, if your police would side with the government and billionaires, then it is authoritarian.
Because… It’s their job? Protecting everyone from unlawful blahblah? Overthrowing a gov is kinda the epitome of “unlawful”. No wonders here. Also they’d probably do shit and the army rolls out in such a case, but…
Especially the muricans hate cops so much but love their military. People being paid to murder other people “for protection”.
Where are the AMAB instead of ACAB?
Anyhow, and your take on your statement is, that cops are the evil then?
Where’s the importance of the lowest of enemies that are literally in the same boat as the regular working joe that cries ACAB?
Or is it just acceptance that one couldn’t change a thing but hating cops is graspable and tangible?
I see you avoid answering things, so I don’t even watch this. But for the point of the argument again: Rising fascism in europe is connected to the fucking cops HOW?! Why the effing f should I care about the enforcers of a system that wants to fuck me raw and not the owners of this system?
Serves my point somehow, doesn’t it?
When fascism comes to Europe, and the fascists are elected to office, and they legislate laws that are contradictory to the public, who will enforce those fascist laws enacted by the state?
The police.
When the fascists make laws against protesting, against workers striking, how does the state enforce these laws?
The police.
Understand the police are an extension of the state (the government). As the state becomes more fascist, police are employed to enforce this fascism.
I can’t comprehend your comments. I have demonstrated, with sources, the relationship between capitalism and policing, repeatedly. You refuse to acknowledge that relationship, responding with, “but police are friends.” Feelings aren’t an appropriate defense of the purpose and existence of an apparatus of the state, despite the friendly policeman down the street.

This is specific to the United States, but it will also apply as fascism rises in Europe.

So, you’re a troll, a bot or unable to comprehend my posts. Which is it?
I do understand what police is and what they do. Did you copy/paste this from r/i_am_14_and_this_is_deep?
