      You should try to get communists in there it worked for Czechoslovakia post WW2, the partisans supplanted the police and couped the liberals. It’s even easier to vet people now just dig into their social media

          Make a video saying “We are going to change the NYPD, and I need people who would never normally want to be cops to apply!” while a hammer and sickle slowly fades in and out behind him like a subliminal message

          Tell them they will have the full backing of the NYPD and the city to go stop-and-frisk, harass, and physically intimidate suspiciously wealthy-looking people walking around Wall Street.

          This won’t happen, but theoretically you would work with left-wing groups to get the word out while maintaining plausible deniability in public. You would also need to purge the higher ranks first and replace them with people you already have selected and allow them time to get the infrastructure in place to make the selection process ideologically sound. But yeah that’s a multi year process and the entire power of the political machine would be pushing against you.
