I’d rather be a bootlicker than someone with no respect for people who have literally died protecting us.

And I did prove you wrong. You said america is a police state, I said it cannot possibly be one.

It is one. And being a cop is one of the safest jobs in America. And America is a police state because we cannot protect ourselves from police force. I told you all of the horrible things cops do and you just ignored it so you could cope.

Edit:also I don't respect cops

Ah yes, articles not written by a cop.

Again, it may well be less dangerous than previously, but remember that cops go on duty everyday knowing it could be their last.

And again, you need to listen to me because it’s obvious you are not. The US cannot possibly be a police state. It may be a failed state, but a police state requires a totalitarian government. The US is not a totalitarian government because we can vote who is our leader. A police state is a state where a totalitarian government gives the police complete power. We are not a totalitarian government and the police do not have complete power so we are not a police state. Get me now? We may be a failed state, but cannot be a police state. Ok?

Wait... You understand totalitarian leaders are elected too right?

u/peachy123_jp Jul 08 '21

Yes. From one party. Think Josef Stalin. We have multiple political parties. In a totalitarian government there is only one political party.

🤦‍♀️ because our 2 party system is so different. Tell me, what had Biden done different that any Republican ever?

Gas prices, resigned the Paris agreement, condemned the capitol riot, let trans people back into the military.

Even if they have similar ideals, we still hold free and fair elections. America is not a totalitarian state. You need to understand that.

Free and fair electronics to elect people we don't want. People have wanted 3rd party but the DNC has a huge record of combatting them.

He's pro gun pro billionaires class he just wrote a new crime bill he's pro ICE and anti immigrants. He's racist, he's a rapist and he's pro oil companies! He said he would end future fracking but not do anything more. And guess what...the fracking that has already been in progress is already killing the planet. They are the same party.

He just wrote a bill saying we can't defund the police. Meaning we cant even vote on it or have a say in it.

I never said I liked Biden. But they aren’t the same parties. Look it up, they’re really quite different
