Polizhai
that's not fair đ why's he a cold blooded killing machine on top of being a shark?
All Cops Are BlahÄj
If only.
They might be roleplaying!
Like... surprise gay party of 80's?
(At least I think these were popular in the 80's, from comedy buster movies, I have no experience, for good and bad)
Or a stripper!
Nooo blahaj what did you do? Noooo!
Especially traitors who give the institution legitimacy without making it better
Half plush, half shark. All cop.
But policemen are not an issue outside of the us, that german blahaj is fine!
While "Die Polizei" as an institution is not AS bad as the US equivalent (and honestly, that would be quite a high bar), the institutional group-dynamics are strongly moving in the same direction and have attracted a (not really) suprising amount of authoritarian conservative or right-out right-wing people into their ranks, strengthening an inherent institutional anti-left, anti-immigrant and anti-poor bias.
It's not quite the same issue as in the US, (for example our Polizei get a great education in de-escalation and handling people without the use of force) but the institutionalized sentiments are increasingly dangerous and problematic.
What about reporting police abuse? I am a fellow Europoor and I feel that here if you reported a patrol it'd get taken quite seriously (or it would become a political scandal if it didn't).
Police violence charges are usually dropped due to "lack of public interest" (which can be applied to pretty much any crime at the discretion of the responsible prosecutor) and/or the police officers you allege to have abused you will sue you for defamation. Usually it's both.
So another police office will decide whether to believe you or their fellow police officer?
There's just been videos of cops detaining pro-Palestine protesters in Germany.
One shows them separating and piling on a woman. One cop repeatedly punching her in the face with a fist while she's already on the ground.
Cops are bastards. All. No matter where.
What gave you that idea?? There are loads of cops in nazi whatsapp groups and all the others that just shut up about their bad colleagues.
ACAB always and everywhere. Cops the world around protect the status quo, NOT the people.
All Cops Is All Cops.
Just because your country is fucked up that doesnât mean the world is
...but the world is fucked up though... and tbh, the United States and its hegemony has had a lot to do with it unfortunately.
Via its ex-hegemony (Ty daddy Tramp) do you mean the the consistent negative effect it had on the world ever since they claimed?
IMO, the United States still very much has its hegemony. Although Trump has certainly damaged the United States's reputation...my government unfortunately still has tremendous power and money. For Christ's sake, we control the financial system.
My point is that a lot of the fucked-up stuff going on in the world is because of the US meddling in local affairs. For example, when the CIA toppled the government of because was popularly elected, and allowing even statist socialism to spread would be inconvenient for the American political project.
That, and a lot of governments play "follow the leader" with the US. So anything monstrous we do, other world leaders are going to follow eventually.
Oh jolly goddess you donât

Military power is not taken seriously anymore! Superpowers cannot even defeat very small countries, like you guys lost against Syria, Thailand, Afganistan⊠The most recent example is Russia losing against Ukraine! Sure you have a lot of nukes, but almost all countries are in such alliances where through one way or another they are also protected by nukes + the international outrage if anyone used them would be so estronomical that even a deranged dictatorship like Russia doesnât risk it

You guys spend far far far more on keeping the dollar the national currency then what you benefit from that and donnie is currently severing your trade with other countries
Your hegemony is thankfully overïżŒ!I think you are really overestimating your influence! Say the world is and was very much so open to china despite your fluctuating relationship with them!
Military power is not taken seriously anymore!
It's not just military power. We also have the CIA. We also control NATO, and we have a bunch of proxy States.
Your hegemony is thankfully over!
Like I agree that it is diminishing, and I agree that it is a good thing that it is diminishing. I'm just saying it's a little early to call US hegemony completely gone.
ACAB includes good cops
Which makes no sense
It absolutely does. By "good" cops, I mean those who follow protocols and are generally nice to the people they lord over.
When I say ACAB, I am not necessarily weighing in on the individual character of all police officers (although often they do suck as individuals). What I mean is that the role that cops play in society is evil. The police are here to impose the will of the capitalist class on the working class every single day. Even if they follow protocols while doing it, even if individual cops rarely do "the right thing", even if the "good" cop in your head or your social network or family is otherwise an excellent person outside their police work, all cops are still cops and therefore categorically evil.
ACAB includes "good" cops because the police are a categorically evil institution.
In germany we call policeman abusing their power "bedauerliche EinzefÀlle"
Or "eine Reihe bedauerlicher EinzelfÀlle"
So viele EinzelfÀlle...
ACAB, even that seemingly kind German cop you met with on your vacation in Germany.
Even the kind cop? All the more proof y'all just cop-h8ters. This is what happens when woke and dei
You just don't want forced feminization. Get out of here fed they!
I lived there for 3 years, might move back this year :)
ASCAB!
