What are you on?
The internet.
ALL COPS ARE BAD because the SYSTEM is bad. [...]
i don't know a whole lot about how the brain works but that sounds completely wrong to my wiggly ass worm brain
Cops are either the ones doing awful s--- or they're ignoring the awful s---. [...] They are allowed to and even encouraged to abuse their power. [...] and yet it takes years to become a lawyer and months for become a cop.
Those sure are words on the screen, but can you provide a source that backs up those words? -
Tell me you're the physical manifestation of a stereotypical twitter user without telling me you're the physical manifestation of a stereotypical twitter user.
Except not even twitter users are this racist
(And because I know you'll say something, I'd like to say that assuming someone's white because of their stance on ACAB is in fact racism. That's like assuming someone's black because they like rap music.) -
Are you white?
-
Why does me being white even matter? It's got no bearing on this conversation.

Our identities inform our worldviews.
Also I wanted to know if Toker was right -
yeah, I'm Caucasian. I have less melanin than some of you, but it changes absolutely nothing about my argument.
(I'm mostly Hispanic, but I'm also Italian.)
In other news, does anyone actually want to contribute to the argument? -
I'm black and while I do think the law enforcement and judicial system is corrupt, I am skeptical of such an aggressive and catch-all acronym like ACAB. Would your opinion and response to ravager's argument be different if he was a person of color??
-
Furthermore when we use the term ACAB, are we disregarding all the good officers trying to make do within a corrupt system or are they inherently bad too?

I already addressed this, maybe in another thread so I'll say it again. Even if there are cops with good intentions "trying to make do," they are still a part of, and enabling, a system that allows and even encourages the "bad cops" to abuse POC -
Ok thanks for clarifying
-
Like I said before, I was mostly curious about if TokeR was right, and I'm not making a response to his argument either way, just wanted to know
-
ok then
-
personally I find it's valuable in these discussions to see where people are coming from , which sometimes includes race. although I'm just observing, I still wanted to know. sorry if it made you uncomfortable

I'm autistic so I struggle with tact and knowing the least offensive way to say or ask things

Oh
