yeah its very confused to exclude cops from the category ‘worker’, but eliding the context of what that work does is extremely myopic. the guys who design layoffs and labor discipline are workers, the people who police & manage workers are very often workers, and the actual police are workers.

that not all workers do pro-social work is not that huge of a hump to get over but white radlibs seem to get intensely hung up on it wrt cops & troops
