Why ACAB?
Occasionally people ask, ‘what about the good cops? What about the people who join the police to protect their communities?’
Those people do exist. Not everyone signing up to be a cop is doing it to power trip and brutalise people.
The crux of the matter is, one’s personal motivation for becoming a cop does not change the material reality that, institutionally, they have no choice but to be bastards.
They will be fired if they choose to deescalate instead of shooting to kill.
Their colleagues discuss how much they love to attack people and get away with it.
If they try to stop their colleagues from choking restrained captives to death, they’ll get punched in the face and fired without a pension.
If they try to tell the truth when it's their names on the line, they'll be stifled and shunted around divisions until they beat their wives and kill themselves.
If they try to enforce the law on their superiors, they’ll be fired on the spot.
If they break the thin blue line, the rest of the force will do anything to disempower and discredit them.
If they encourage other cops to stand up against injustice, they will be cut loose.
There’s nothing you can do to stop them killing you in your own home, in front of your daughter, within seconds of opening the door. If they do, your family may get $4 in compensation.
They’ll shoot children for playing with BB guns, even when they know the guns are fake.
If you’re thinking ‘at least they have cute dogs’, I’ve got bad news for you: USA police kill 25 dogs per day. It’s an epidemic.
But maybe you’re down with literal child and puppy murder, so long as you stay safe. It’s a steep price for safety, but cops keep us safe, right? Surprise: courts have ruled cops have no duty to protect you. The only thing that matters is their own skin.
Alright but they still solve major crimes and lock up the real sickos! Nope, cops aren't even good at their jobs.
That is why the only good cop is a soon-to-be ex-cop.

Hello, I'm pretty new to this subreddit and I've popped in every once in a while. I also view YouTube channels like Skip Intro dealing with the same subject.
Until recently, I never new how big this was. It's not just cop shows, super hero and military shows are also part of this.
When was the first time you starting seeing this stuff? I'll tell you when it was explained to me, I can't stop seeing it now.
I was recommended to share this here as well from /r/OrphanCrushingMachine
Watch the end it shows the crimes my local police have been arrested for!
