The sidebar says all cops are bastards, but since most people here are leftists, what makes cops in socialist countries different? If most people here support socialist cops, then shouldn’t it be all capitalist cops are bastards?

    shouldn’t it be all capitalist cops are bastards?

    This 100%. Cops as a concept enforce the interests of the state. When its a capitalist state, they enforce capitalist interests, when its a worker’s state, they enforce workers interests.

    Check out this video of some traffic cops from China in the 1970s. Observe how different their demeanor and perspective is from capitalist cops. They are out there to protect and serve the people.
