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.
idk the history of that word as well as it is not used my in dialect really, but there is the whole sexist angle in that one that doesn’t really seem like much of a help to us
calling someone one of the oppressed classes as an insult doesnt seem the right way to go about it
Plays well in Australia 🤷
