Do you think cops have to have a missing part of their brain to do their jobs? Or like do they actively suppress rational thought and empathy? Maybe they just essentially lie to themselves about tearing up and destroying tent encampments people use to survive?
I don't think we need to pathologize cops to understand why they do what they do. They simply get paid to be massive pieces of shit in a way that our capitalist society constantly tells them is good and necessary. Keeping their job depends on them not thinking too hard about their victims, so they don't.
fair enough points. i just saw another video of a bunch of cops demolishing a bunch of tents and it really fuckin pissed me off, it's just absurd to me how they can think they're doing anything but being horrible
they were fuckin smiling as someone pleaded with them to let them get their stuff after it was already in a garbage truck. just infuriating
