    I know many folks who want reform of policing and realize there are deep problems with them. I don’t know anyone who believes ACAB.

    Purely anecdotal, but it makes it easier to believe that you are correct and it’s not a vast majority of people who believe that.

      That’s insane to me, not saying you’re lying or wrong, but the only people I know who don’t believe ACAB are folks over 55 and those closely connected to the cops in their personal lives but even the latter isn’t a monolith. I for sure haven’t met a young person that wasn’t at least of the ‘fuck the police’ mindset since 2020
