That's true, I dont speak for anyone but myself. It's hard enough to convince the unconvinced of bare accountability, let alone abolition!

It's cool, I figured you weren't trying to undermine anyone. I don't think straight-up authoritarians can be convinced that cops should have anything but absolute power. Better to try to convince compassionate liberals that radical solutuons are worth a shot. The activists they lionize were a lot more radical than they think. Some spicy MLK quotes might work. Idk, BLM got me to start learning about history, and it radicalized me a lot.
