Cops are pretty racist though. Like systemically the racism is fueled off of fear of crime. If cops can convince people that crime is on the rise, they get money to do more racism. And the entire system is designed that way. So... take what your cop relatives say with a grain of salt.

This isn't to say that your relatives are racist, btw, but instead its to say that the institution is designed to oppress, and thrives off fearmongering about rising crime.

Hahaha, 9/10 of the top 10 places with the highest murder rates are red. Try again though (and I don't even like defending dems, I'm a leftist...)

Edit: goes to show that police are innefective and more spending =/= less crime, moreover, a more policed state is a more paranoid, divided, and racialized state.

Love it so far, would like to be able to have account specific settings, such as showing and hiding NSFW on one account but not the other if possible.
