I don’t determine my value based on others opinions, unless I was a cop. Then my value would be negative

When you grow up you’ll learn that giving a damn about other people’s opinion isn’t worth the effort. A skill all cops should have but for some reason lack, hence why they deserve to be wormfood.

Giving a damn about what others think is actually what makes a society function. You aren’t any special to anyone else

Yeah I know you don’t have any response to the substance of my comment so that strawman is cool. Never said anything about following orders or me wholeheartedly defending the police. All I’m saying is that criticizing the police as an institution is fine, but saying everyone that joins the police is evil is disingenuous. I’ve had bad experiences with police, and have also had some that helped out my family personally after a family member passed away.

Your anger with the police force as a whole is corrupting your heart and making you see your countrymen who want a job as “evil” and “inhuman”. It’s not good or healthy to think like this. Police reform is valid, but calling the millions of officers evil and inhuman is inherently incorrect and hateful. Get better soon ❤️

I dont think they were arguing they were special i just think they don’t care what You think of them

I’m not special and neither is anyone else so why get worked up about what they have to say? Just brush it off and move on

No one said it is an acceptable excuse for the bad actors. But to condemn all cops and the very idea of civil society and the rule of law on that basis?

Nobody who served the state over the people is my countryman. They’re traitors to the people. Nothing wrong with being hateful, especially when they’ve earned it with their gross negligence, incompetence and complete refusal to improve on their own

You exist in society with these people. What they say and what they think matters for this reason. And this individualism is what led to these people having these beliefs in the first place

Well you’re wrong again because cops don’t serve the USA (state), they are a local or state-wide force. I’m sure youd have great trouble finding a fraction of the 500k local cops that are traitors to the people. Your hate against an idea (the police force) has caused you to extend that hate to individuals who even want to join it, you can’t even fathom someone who loves their community and genuinely wants to make it safer. Keep being hateful, I’m sure research shows it’s good for you long term

They do. Maybe no directly but they’ve made it abundantly clear the state is more important to the people. Actually all of them are and I had no trouble with that. I can fucking speak for myself thank you, so get your words out of my mouth. I hate the police because they’re cowards who hide behind unions and abuse their power with little to no accountability and when we need them most they pussy out at best. That’s fucking why. Fucking asshole.

You clearly can speak for yourself, with lots of emotional outbursts and anger. You should probably have someone level-headed and intelligent, such as myself, to proofread your writing before you post. Your arguments are very ineffective, grounded in hate, and are likely to be mocked by the current administration. You’re the definition of when they talk about “crazed liberals who want to kill all police officers”, I thought that was just hyperbole but I get proven wrong here every day 🤷

No, history did. This country wasn’t founded on peaceful protests, the slaves weren’t freed on peaceful protests, women didn’t get the right to vote through peaceful protests, the civil rights movement wasn’t successful because of peaceful protests. And that’s just a skim of US history

It’s really not. And me saying cops can’t eat shit for all I care isn’t going to be the downfall of society. Maybe focus on the guy calling every non white person a terrorist or criminal first. The sjw shit is annoying

Have you considered a career in Olympic long jumping? I don’t trust institutions that refuse to be held accountable. Academia has a high standard of accountability.

Anonymous #2 4w

So some institutions have accountability and others don’t. But the ones that have accountability in your perspective have their authority given to them by the same ones that give authority to the other institutions that you think should be exterminated

1

Anonymous landtrust 4w

In my perspective? Who hold law enforcement accountable? Who. Academia is an international institution. It’s given authority by millennia of study. They’re not remotely comparable. Also I never said shit about exterminating anyone. They’re just a waste of money in their current state

Anonymous #2 4w

Academia is international with hegemony concentrated in certain areas. But either way, your education most likely was domestic. It’s still the same institutions that give authority to both academia and police. So why do you trust them in one instance but not another?

Bold assumption, but incorrect. I was educated by 3 different nations(including the US). And no, It’s not. This comparison is an absolute wild reach and I’m done entertaining it. Get with reality.
