Regular reminder that when the time comes, they will be the ones arresting everyone for being queer, trans, disabled, a scientist, for just speaking out, etc.

They’re not here to keep you safe, they exist to protect property and power.

Cops are not and will never be safe. They shouldn’t be welcomed or trusted. Ever. Even the gay ones. Even your cousin. Even a woman cop.

This is an image of a line of a few dozen Chicago police officers in riot gear standing outside of and protecting a Tesla dealership.

    The only kind of socialism MAGA types will accept. They love their money being poured into protecting their betters.

    This is quite chilling… A warning to heed, cops may begin to silence minorities and dissent.

    While having the peons pay the bill for it, of course. After all, taxes are for people too poor to hire one of the really smart accountants.

    I never trust cops, I’m a disabled neurodivergent transbian. A good chunk of the things that cops’ (and by extension the billionaires who pay them) hate and want to destroy

    Cops are a byproduct of the fascist takeover in our country. We must not trust them and comply in advance.
