Not only are all cops bastards, Cops are class traitors. Police unions should not be allowed.
class traitors
Daily reminder that cops are not working class
Cops of overpaid pos idiots
Idk, in my estimation they ARE working class, which is precisely why they are class traitors
I would say the majority of cops, in America, are firmly in the working class, financially speaking. Unless you've got some theory reason for why police are excluded from the proletariat or something. Which I don't know if I'd argue with. They exist to protect capital.

Class traitors, every single one
This is why strikes are so important.
They remind the workers who's side the cops are really on in the class war.
Reminder: Cops are class traitors.
Cops are kept attack dogs.
Animal Farm in real life through every generation. The dogs on the farm were the police.
Pigs will always protect capital
It’s something to do with why they were invented.
Police are unionized lmao. Let's break up that union and see how they like it. They should be on our side but the fucking cowards bent the knee. I'm not the least but surprised, it's no longer the police but a gang of violent goons protecting the elite.
I wish the irony wasn't lost on them as having the police as allies would do us all a lot of good.
They're not smart enough to take sides. They just do what they're told.
They just do what they’re told.
That, and they do what they are well paid to do.

I floated the idea to someone that we should make police unions responsible for any legal payouts when a cop is found at fault and there is a civil payout. The police won't hold themselves accountable and they don't even have to pay the fines. The tax payers do. Making the police unions pay would give them incentive to actually cut ties with bad cops.
I was told that was a terrible idea and the fastest way to bankrupt the police. I didn't see the problem.
Oh no, the police going bankrupt. The horror!
Reminder: police unions are not worker unions
Foot soldiers of capital doing the one thing they're paid for.
Fucking class traitors
Bastards and scabs. It’s a good look
the police are now traitors to the american populace.
gross.
"now"
Before too, but also now and in the immediate and distant future
Shockingly, they're all fat useless pieces of shit too.
Is it any surprise that a pig is also a scab?
Remove the police union see how they like it.
Do we still have to keep calling their gangs, "unions"? Clearly they have zero interest in class solidarity, and have only reinforced the reality that they exist to protect capital.
They have interest in class solidarity in the sense that they have set themselves in a class separate from the majority of the people, and they experience significant solidarity within that class.
But their insular "solidarity" is a shadow of what they could experience if they didn't throw their communities under the bus to appease capital. I find it quite sad, in a way, because capital cares about police officers no more than it cares about me; capital considers them a resource to be exploited, just as it does me. We should be on the same side, but alas.
That's supposed to be NYC's finest? They look like lazy mall cops. Sloppy as hell, out of shape, and disorganized.
Well, they are as fine as it gets. Which just happens to be not a lot.
Shouldn't people be boycotting Amazon, otherwise working people are hanging themselves with the rope they bought and brought to the party.
At least some of us have already.
As much as possible yeah
But Amazon can deliver that rope free, within two business days!

Unemployment is at 3%! Who is crossing the strike lines to work at Amazon of all places?
If unemployment is so low then why can't I find a god damn job? I've been searching since October!
You can find jobs, just not careers. Lower your standards and their are infinite shit jobs that you can take.
Dude I can't even get hired at a grocery store. I apply and apply and apply to all sorts of shit and nobody ever responds. I've filled out over 100 applications, and all I got out of that was 3 interviews and no offers.
It was easier to find work when I first entered the job market in 2008, right after the economy crashed. The last time I had to look for job was right before COVID, and it was easy as hell. Literally applied to 3 jobs and was hired within 2 weeks. What the hell changed in recent years?
Age-ism.
You are too old/skilled/educated/mobile/employable for non premium works, so the non-premium works take a pass on you.
Dumb down your resume or work for a temp agency for a bit. Pretend you have addiction issues. Be a little emotionally volatile. People will hire you on the basis of, they can potentially exploit you.
