I do understand having a cynical outlook on things. That is how I look at the state of policing in the US.
And in my part of the world there are similar defeatist opinions, but through engagement with the community at large we (the people) are slowly able to change things for the better.
Sometimes it feels like it’s one step forward but two steps back. That just means I’ll pick up speed and march on faster.
Sorry, it really doesn’t work that way here. People only have the capacity to accept the status quo and use whatever resources are available to them given their socioeconomic standing, which is fluctuating.
Community based and state sponsored programs in the US are more often than not for show and nothing more.
The rest is “oh, yeah, I voted for that”. 30% of the time something that’s good for for society might go through.
There is far too much corruption in our system for the people to make a dent. That’s just the way it is.
