    Don't waste the time bruh. This a dude who been brainwashed by the idea of respectability politics actually getting anybody anywhere.

    There have been calls for police reform for decades and that s*** been getting ignored every step of the way.

    People don't give a f*** how you present your slogan. If it's something that takes power away from police it doesn't mean a damn thing, and it'll be dead upon arrival.

    people do gaf about how slogans are presented

    that’s why slogans are a thing

    n the whole respectability thing ain’t too relevant in regards to the police anyway; they were never the target of this idea. the target is the general populace, so worrying about how the slogan reflects on the police is far less significant than how it’ll reflect on the public and their perception of the police

    you said smthn bout how a longer slogan doesn’t roll off the tongue — fair enough, also an admission that ppl gaf bout slogans, but the point of this thread is that the slogan cares too much bout rolling off the tongue and oversteps the whole “make your slogan communicate your idea effectively enough” part

    said it before, and I'll say it again. The last time defund was in the american political consciousness was when members of the GOP wanted to defund planned parenthood. And defund meant NO funding.

    like in 2015

    in 2019

    and in 2021

    F*** it

    Let’s just Balkanize than

    Cacs rather "balkanize" than address their own issues within themselves that make slogans like "reform the police" and "defund the police" not work...incredible.

    I am a white man

    I f***ing hate it when people call me the n word, don’t every say that to me again

    I would bet my life savings on defunding/abolishing the police never being more than 30% popularity with voters

    This has to be a troll now I'm convinced
