Glad I asked, I found the story believable for that same reason but wasn't sure if you were sarcastic.

Traffic cops could be a huge help to social order, but nah, rather just be petty tyrants who bring cash into the city via the laziest means of ticketing possible.

I have a straightforward, no-nonsense approach to politics that convinces people I'm some sort of troll when I say completely reasonable left wing political views. I guess other leftists feel the need to qualify and speak softly and really try hard to make themselves understood by the other side. I don't care about making my views palatable to reactionaries, and I guess for some reason that makes them unpalatable to other leftists as well. It's really fucking weird.
