It’s full of “I’m left but not a tankier” and “ACAB doesn’t mean all cops, it means this system is unjust” and so much cringe. You guys jump in there because I can’t.

    Another gem

    Being left leaning doesn’t mean you don’t like cops, or think that police aren’t an important job. That’s a bit of propaganda that has been used to further divide the left and right. I know plenty of cops who are very left leaning, and become cops purely to help people with social injustice.

    I’ve been on hexbear too long, I had forgotten that to most westoids “left” means liberal.

    YES, ALL COPS.

    God jesus I’m grateful I got rid of my reddit account already; cause today would be the day I got perma’d for the things I’d be saying. Which sums up to “if your praxis involves any kind of manifestation of carceral ‘corrections’, fictional or IRL, you’re no ‘leftist’ I want to be associated with and your characters all deserve the messiest deaths they could be given at the hands of those they think they’d ‘police’.”.

        Unfortunately. And much like my last point, there is no ground for me to share with reformists. You can’t reform the beast, it will only revert to the nature it was birthed with. ‘Law enforcement’ as we know it needs to be dismantled alongside the white supremacy that spawned it.

    They even have their own word for “heretic”. It’s “bootlicker” and they use it against anyone who doesn’t swallow their sacred letters completely and totally.

    bootlicker

    Don’t ask this site to jump in or brigade anything, we love posting trash reddit threads, but you won’t find so much as a single comment or upvote in the actual threads lmao
