Or they just beleive in free speech like Elon believes in free speech, that all citizens should have a right to it... for a small monthly fee.

@TruthSandwich

I am going to start a party called "The Progressive Party" its sloagan will be "Change for the sake of change, lets fight about it!"

@freepeoplesfreepress

@lxo that bigotry expressed towards bigots doesnt make you a bigot?

Yea I suppose so..

I just moved from #Brave to #LibreWolf browser... we will see if this remains my new browser... But first impressions are positive.

@TruthSandwich

Agreed that "far left" would have been more accurate than to say "liberal" here

@freepeoplesfreepress

@TruthSandwich

Sure, when im not pulled in a few different directions ill be happy to.

Oddly while I would of course feel very sad someone commited suicide over a trailer, that actually makes me want to see the trailer more.

@TruthSandwich

I guess that depends on if you mean "all cops in the USA" or "all cops in the world"

When i use ACAB i use it to mean all cops in the USA and find cops in other countries quite reasonable.

But yea I can see if the A meant all cops everywhere and at any point in time... then yea.

@freepeoplesfreepress

@TruthSandwich

Not sure I follow. I argued that 99.99% of cops were bad, we agreed this should be addressed with reform not defund.

Are you saying that 0.01% makes a difference? Cause id say thats close enough to all.

@freepeoplesfreepress

@d9dba0e072bdb353dfb0020de159126af47e69e133ea91bbd48e8bede37320e2

This actually made me think... we have a rating system for tv shows and movies but as far as I know it doesnt apply to commercials... thats weird.

@realcaseyrollins

@TruthSandwich

It is an argument for reform... maybe you misread what I said.. I argued several times while I support ACAB I do **not** support defund, I **do** support reform.

So yes we agree

@freepeoplesfreepress

@futurebird Could you imaging slicing off a chunk of a flower to look at it under an electron microscope and just seeing billions of little tiny electron microscopes staring back at you :)

@TruthSandwich

As I said, i do not support defunding despite supporting ACAB.. so we agree there.

But since this logic assumes a cop is bad for not arresting their partner or other cops when those other cops are bad, it is an arguement that all cops are bad, presuming you agree a cop that doesnt act is a bad cop...

And when we say all we are talking 99.99% of cops.. the only exceptions would be a cop that has arrested other cops when on duty... which is virtually non existant.

@freepeoplesfreepress

@TruthSandwich

Except for the fact that corruption and abuse is out of control in our police for and almost ubiquitous... with police either actively and knowingly abusing people they have an issue with, or the "good cops" standing around and not arresting the bad cops when they witness this.

There are two facts I cant deny

1) virtually every police department has a large portion of cops who will knowingly lie, manipulate or abuse the rules to get the results they want.

2) In all the hundreds of thousands of videos catching cops abusing people it is almost completely nonexistant you will see the partner of that cop draw a gun on their partner and arrest them on the spot when they see it... never

That equates to even the good cops being bad out of inaction, thats an ACAB sentiment and I can agree with it, even if i dont agree with defunding the police as a solution.

@realcaseyrollins

hidden blocks are particularly ugly.. not for the server blocked, but for people who may want to join a server, they wont even know.

@curtis

@TruthSandwich

I mean ACAB is a sentiment, defund the police is a particular proposed "solution" that comes from ACAB.

For most they do go hand in hand, but no, not for me.

@freepeoplesfreepress

@realcaseyrollins Ahh ok.. yea i can confirm I can follow and I can search for and see that link from my instance...

Weird they blocked you guys and not us..

@TruthSandwich

I mean sure, they are going to push the swing vote far more than any staunch democrat party supporter... Either way this sort of toxicity weakens the left.

And while I myself sympathize with ACAB, but not defund the police, I do agree usually an ACAB account is a good sign it will be trash... oh the irony.

@freepeoplesfreepress

@realcaseyrollins How did you find out?

@TruthSandwich

> Nah, the far left’s attempt to take over the DNC has not driven me into the waiting arms of the fascist RNC.

It may not have driven you to the RNC, but it has driven a lot of others to it. But more importantly it is more likely to drive them to third parties. Either way it weakens the DNC.
