“What planet do you live on, Planet Gestapo Boot Licker?”
Oh, I’m in for the read here.
Cops are psycho these days because they are trained to be that way.
The morning briefing is designed to establish “Us versus them” narratives and divide the cop from the rest of us.
It is designed to scare them into considering us, at least for the next shift, to be an enemy in a war.
And we reflect that image throughout our own day.
I am pretty anti-cop. Not all cops, but most. Like “It’s just the 90% of bad cops that make the other 10% look bad” sorta thing.
But I do understand with every single cop out there that they are being manipulated to hate me. To resent me. When a riot breaks out the cops are lined up not between rioters and businesses, not between rioters and the innocent - they are lined between rioters and town hall.
The government places cops in bad positions not to keep us safe, but to be their enforcers. The government is bad. They want cops to be violent, extreme and unhinged. It benefits them greatly to have footsoldiers on the ground who side with them.
It’s too much to ask for some to blindly follow orders, so instead they create an illusion where the insane orders are easily justified. It’s hypnosis.
