Imagine a fascist regime that has lost so much its moral compass, that off-duty armed cops show up at anti-ICE protests organized by teenagers with the sole purpose of provoking them and arresting them.

America is a pariah State that has lost all legitimacy to tell the rest of the world what's the right thing to do.

@fabio Bad news: cops are like this under liberal leadership as well. They just keep it quieter by only doing it to poor and/or brown people.
For anyone who's mad that they're doing it at all, not just that you're hearing about it or that they're doing it to more people, might I suggest police abolition

@grayhaven@ni.hil.ist more like police training and accountability.
Cops are pretty much loved here in the Netherlands. They go through 3-5x years of training compared to US forces. Training also includes yoga, breathing exercises, psychological fitness and coping with provocation. Not only how to pull a trigger.
And cops are called accountable for their actions too, like any other citizens.
If only America could manage to fix these two issues (on top of having a disproportionately white male and racist police force) it would definitely be a better place.
