is that modern police forces were formed to break strikes and catch runaway slaves. They aren’t praised for “doing their real job for once” it’s more like “local murderer chose to spare this adorable baby after murdering their entire family, what a nice guy”.
Terror and murder are literally their job. They are fulfilling their expected function. Murderous racist cops aren’t aberrant or “breaking the rules”. Those are the rules. The rules are bad. They’re functioning as intended and that is horrific.
