  I’m not sure. I don’t blame the police totally. They are actually humans in an abusive system, too. Their departments dehumanizes them to get them to do abusive stuff. And I have no idea what lever of the ones humans have self-discovered to pull on to make it so that they only do good.

  I’ve actually written a bunch of journals about it uselessly. When I have discovered what I thought was just a cherry genius idea I pretty quickly find not only has it been implemented in some departments … it usually has been gamed into fraud by some broken police officers, too.

  So I have no ideas but i still think and write about it.

    Thank you for the thoughtful reply to my dumb joke, ha. Genuinely, I appreciate it. Because I am in the same position when it comes to my feelings on it. I feel like if we tried to get rid of police the ex-police would just organize snd become terroristic entities demanding their jobs back… a situation in which you will need, you guessed it, a police force to police the ex police. There’s basically no good solutions other thana massive subset of humans choosing to be better people.
