The left convinced me of the #defundthepolice argument. If police have nothing better to do than to harass people for having social gatherings or not wearing a mask, then clearly they don't have enough work to do and their budget should be reduced.
When conservatives say "don't resist arrest if you don't want to get shot", this leads down to a very slippery slope. There have been many instances of police officers being trigger happy and overly-aggressive against white people too even before the pandemic.
The left's always been in favour of using state force against a population. They're way more pro-police than perceived. They only were anti-police for the BLM movement because it's an means to an end, it's destabilization that they need to further empower the state and bring forward communism. Also it helps root out the good cops from police forces. The good cops become so demoralized that they quit, only to be replaced by some leftist thugs. The right knows the narrative that all cops are racist is insane and wrong, and the impulse is to defend the police against the media narrative. The right failed to think about cops becoming the enforcement arm of communist politicians.
Same here. I followed the election in the states obsessively, when I saw them outright steal an election, and every single safeguard fail to use its power to defend the voting process, it made it clear to me what I had long suspected; the system is hopelessly corrupt and what is left of democracy in the west has been ripped apart and sold out for the selfish profits of a legion of successive frauds, grifters, and conmen. I decided then that all was lost regarding our social institutions, the schools And universities are gone, the military, the police, none of them serve their purpose or improve our nation. I can decay with it, or I can protect and improve the only thing I have control over, that’s myself, my land, my family, and my life.

The libertarians were the right ones all along.

To be fair, you can think politicians for drafting the laws that the police have to follow.
I believe there are a lot more people than you think or I think that feel the same way.
I would desperately try and immigrate to a country that will defend the values I believe in.
I would never fight for this country in the state it is in, queers and trannies in the military and Trudeau is the prime minister, not a chance.
