ACAB is a common slogan, especially in anarchist spaces. Should we really be using it though? It is a reference to children born without their parents being married, and due to christian morality is seen as inherently negative. It is effectively a slur. Do we really think that trying to enforce the hierarchies we are trying to get away from on others is going to help us? How have we allowed this slogan to become so common?
As an anarchist I think we should be defending these people, not punishing them with the hope of some of that transferring to cops.
All Cops Are Blue, as in depressed 😔 That’s why they lash out so much. They just need therapy, a big long hug, and a good cry.
This very much minimizes the violence perpetrated by the cops while blaming depression.
I’m pretty sure it’s sarcasm.
cops kill people for being depressed, isn’t that just victim blaming?
