Gregory's ServerCops are a menace to society that reinforce oppressive power dynamics and primarily exist to protect the ruling capitalist class and their stolen wealth, and if you have friends you should encourage them to hate cops as well, otherwise you should get new friends that do.

@plsik @Radical_EgoCom These are observations, facts. You know when the police are doing something wrong and when they shouldn't even be there. But that's no reason for me to hate. In my country recently a mentally ill person went to university with a very powerful long gun. He had other guns and ammo with him. He killed a total of 3 people before that and 14 more at the university. @Radical_EgoCom @plsik @Radical_EgoCom I apologize for the lousy translation. In my day job, they work with the police (working with homeless people). Some are good, some are assholes. @Radical_EgoCom If I'm at a protest, a demonstration, then I'm on the other side of the barricade. But even then, negotiating with the cops is better if they treat them like people doing their job. In my country it's not very good, but it's not very bad either. We can work together, or we can harm each other. We're gonna create this, in the moment. @plsik @Radical_EgoCom needs a bit of qualification, I think. Our local cops are good people. @rogerparkinson @Radical_EgoCom @rogerparkinson "good cops" either leave, get pushed out, or become complicit, at which point they aren't good @fluffykittycat @Radical_EgoCom @rogerparkinson Or remain silent about the shit that other cops do next to them, at which point they're no longer good cops either.  @Radical_EgoCom @rogerparkinson Iβm fortunate enough to have met 2 brilliant cops. Butβ¦.. Iβve met shit loads of arseholes who are cops. One of the brilliant cops is a family member, the other a man who βgot itβ. My experience? I spent over 20 years working alongside the local constabulary. A sad indictment of the U.K. and its law enforcement officers. @Radical_EgoCom I like to think (and I see evidence for this) that the cops in my part of the world have a reasonably good service ethic. They don't, for example, normally carry guns. The ethics are supported from the top. We do get bad ones from time to time though. We also see gaps in training sometimes when the offender has a mental health issue. @rogerparkinson @Radical_EgoCom @rogerparkinson You can say exactly the same about Tories & people with Right Wing politics generally. They're all Hunts. |
@Radical_EgoCom Sorry, buddy, I got bad feelings too. Anger, hatred. But I don't support it.
When they work at the point of contact with the police as a de-escalator, as a peacemaker, then they need to be wise and careful. Not under the tow of hate. Hate and wisdom cannot be together.
