    Reminds me of bad old days when Ukrainian cops were the worst shit. Like - plant evidence and arrest you worst shit, beat you up in the alley because you look weird shit. You see a cop - you go the opposite side of the street as far as possible because that motherfucker will have a problem with you. And then one day - the government pulled the trigger on the police reform, fired pretty much anyone with any kind of negative rep and replaced them with new recruits and it is almost as if years of fucked up bullshit were all just the bad dream.

      I guess Ukraine didn’t push enough propaganda on you to convince half your population that cops abusing your rights, and killing people at will, is great for Ukraine!

      That’s how we do it in America, the GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE World!®

    The reason that police departments don’t sell beefcake calendars like fire departments do is because there aren’t enough cops without Nazi tattoos

    Might be the conspiratorial part of my brain coming through, but I’m half convinced it’s not just a stupid person, but an AI that completely missed the point.

    I almost wonder if there shouldn’t be an extension or corollary of Hanlon’s Razor somewhere to account for AI.

    part of me wants to believe somewhere down the line, days, weeks, months, years – they’ll have a sudden realization in the shower or before bed, and never stop cringing internally

    the more realistic part of me knows in my heart that that moment may never come without being gently prodded towards it.

      Gently prodded? These fuckers need to be driven to the point with a cattle prod and have their face shoved in it to even hope they catch on.
