ACAB As In...

Jan 30 20223

not ACAB as in "cops are jerks that kicked me out of my spot"
not ACAB as in "Fuck brutality but some pigs are just doing their jobs"
not ACAB as in "The police system right now is fucked but we need more training and money spent on accountability for police"

ACAB as in "Cops are the tangible threat of violence that is used to protect private property, and you know that, which is why you left."
ACAB as in "Brutality is in the job description, that threat of violence is the only reason that they can enact any authority over you. The job of every 'good cop' is eaiser because the violence of the 'bad apples' make it so that to resist is to request brutality. The function of police is to protect property and the interests of the rich, and that includes evicting families from their homes, sweeping camps and throwing away people's warm tents in the middle of winter, confiscating any of your belongings on a whim, and ripping children from their parents just because that child is transgender."
ACAB as in "The justice system has been fucked since the beginning, since slave catchers, legal slavery as punitive justice, foundations of white supremacy in the culture, 'good cops' upholding unjust laws, maintaining the state's monopoly on violence, the institution is rotten to its core. Burn the whole thing down."

ALL COPS ARE BASTARDS!
