      If you want to oversimplify it into a slogan sure.

      “The systems of law and systemic oppression currently in place mean that it is virtually impossible to be a net good to society while trying to serve it in the capacity of cop even if you are well intentioned and want to stop violence.” doesn’t fit nicely on a shirt.

      Problem being is when you take the slogan as nothing but axiomatic truth you kind of miss the point the slogan was made for. The cops whether some or all were never the point. It’s the overlaping systems we have to dismantle.
