It’s also amazing how people can have this argument in one thread and then go to another thread and leave a comment that just says “ACAB”.

You don’t trust cops? Why not? Because of a few bad apples?

Sounds like you get it…

That argument doesn't hold water. One is an immutable characteristic, and the other is a career choice. A career that filters for certain personalities.

The idea is that ACAB because one bad apple spoils the bunch. So yeah. You're missing the point of the idiom you are using.
