I literally listed out several problems, all which are homegrown problems. Nor did I ever deny the existence of foreign influence. But sure, that’s just a “single problem.” Technically you’re the one who acted like your single problem was the most important.
I’m saying I understand it’s bigger than foreign influence. But that I think influence outside of the government, foreign or corporate, is the root cause and bad cops is a symptom.

My friend, as someone who has lived here my whole life. The cops were bad way, way, way, way, way, way before corporate influence and foreign influence. You ever heard the term “Good ol boys?” Seriously, do you know the history of US cops? If not, you really ought to look into it and you’ll stop thinking they’re not an issue of their own entirely.
I live here too, and I’m not exactly young. Corruption in government is the problem. We can fix the government without the involvement of the cops, but we can’t fix the cops without the involvement of the government.
And since you’re choosing to be rude, you really ought to learn how to find the root cause instead of being lazy and blaming the symptom. I realize our education system skips that beat, but you can learn this basic concept on your own.
Here is a good learning resource, and an interesting video that explains it without being rude. If you apply this to ACAB, the root cause becomes clear.
The root cause is that cops have have always been enforcers for the owner class. They started out as fugitive slave patrols and strike-breakers and transformed into their modern form as a government institution when the plutocrats figured out that they could socialize the costs by duping the public into funding them with taxes.
My dude, there’s more than just a single problem. If you’re looking to point a single finger, you’re not going to find a solution.

But otherwise we’re on the same page. Cheers.

Good job at identifying the root cause.
