Well, I get it. There's better places to spend ones time than being a nice cop.
Either they comply of they're out. But... You know. People are pressured to pay for housing, and food, and health. Maybe they're paying for someone's cancer treatment in their family. And cop work pays well.
People don't have much of a choice. We're all fucked. But individuals are not the problem here. The system is. The chain of command is. Capitalism is.
Fuck the police, as the repression apparatus for the bonjoursie state. Care for the people.
Everyone has the choice to not consciously oppress other people.
Cops have both individual and systemic roles in oppression.
If you do work irl the cops will eventually use their violence on you.
