      Dude. Are you saying they work for (checks notes) foreign influence??

      They work for capitalists, buddy. The problem with policing starts way the hell before the cold war was a thing. They’re a symptom of capitalism. And foreign influence is a symptom of? C’mon I know you can get there. Wait, no I don’t… 🤪

        They work for the government.

        The government is corrupt (for many reasons).

        The government is controlled by the ruling class.

        The ruling class is the root cause.

        The police are just one head of the hydra. If you cut it off, two will come back. That’s not a solution.

            If it was just capitalism, China wouldn’t have problems—oh wait they’re also capitalist. Hmmm. Maybe you’re right.
