Alt text: a screenshot of a microblog post with the text “you walking down an alleyway with a gram of weed in your pocket, who would you rather catch you?” Below are two pictures side by side. One of Kamala Harris and the other of Batman.

      The part where she prosecuted poor black parents because their children missed school when they were sick in the hospital?

          Do you have anything of value to contribute to the discussion, or is your sole issue that Kamala Harris has not ever actually served on a police force?

            If somehow not serving on a police force makes you a cop then I guess we’re all bastards.

            And yes, that’s really my sole issue. I didn’t think it was going to be controversial to point out that she wasn’t a cop.

              You do understand that we say “ACAB” because it’s catchier than “I dislike the so-called justice system that does nothing but destroy lives for the state, and that includes cops, lawyers, prosecutors, etc.”, (IDTSCJSTDNBDLFTSATICLPE) right?

              I bet you also say things like “You can’t call everyone you don’t like a nazi, the nazi party ended decades ago!”

              I say this with all the kindness in my heart, please log off and go outside.

                IDTSCJSTDNBDLFTSATICLPE is definitely going in the side bar.

                  What about cops could you possibly dislike that doesn’t also apply to a DA and AG who pushed for false convictions and refused medical care to trans prisoners?

                  Harris isn’t a cop in the same way Trump isn’t a member of the Fascist party. Do you have a problem with people calling Trump a fascist?

          No, prosecutors prosecute. Prosecutors are not literally cops (duh), but they are a very important part of the criminal ”justice” system. Cops couldn’t put people away without their help
