This is why All Cops Are Bastards: their primary purpose is to protect private property, AKA the means of production.

“Policing Enables Bastards”

A shorter phrase allowing for exceptions, e.g. a sheriff in town of thirty people who works one year and retires (without covering for dirty colleagues or breaking strikes etc.)

Policing = being a bastard

Police are class traitors. They have abandoned their working class communities in favor of being given a privileged position in society and being the one who pulls the trigger on working class people themselves. They are scum, all of them. There is no exception. Being a police officer is being scum. Once you've chosen to be a police officer you are no longer a member of the working class. You are now an agent of state violence dedicated to protecting the ruling class. It's the whole reason police exist at all.
