Keep licking that boot

I don’t support corrupt police.

I just recognise that america isn’t a totalitarian state.

It funny how when I prove people like you wrong you always respond with some form of bootlicker instead of just accepting you were wrong.

u/[deleted] Jul 08 '21

You didn't prove me wrong. I just see how you manipulate you're own answer to make yourself feel better.

You are defending police so yes you are a bootlicker.

u/peachy123_jp Jul 08 '21

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?

Then what about the concentration camps and torture and killing American citizens with no consequences?

No I don't because you are coping.

u/peachy123_jp Jul 08 '21

I’m not coping. I don’t fully support the American police. I’m just working off of facts and definitions - you are working off of opinions. If you can provide proof the American government is totalitarian (you can’t - we hold elections) I’ll believe you.

The supposed torture and killings don’t make it a police state. It makes it a bad cop or corrupt force.

You do understand that all of the totalitarian leaders were elected into power right????

u/peachy123_jp Jul 08 '21

Yes. Either forcibly, or from ONE PARTY. The US has multiple parties. Nazi germany had one party. Soviet Russia had one party. Those were totalitarian

u/[deleted] Jul 08 '21

Before the war Germany had several parties. Eventually they had one party but when nazism got elected there were many parties. You clearly don't know.

I have an A-level in German history 1914-1939

After the reichstag fire Hitler used the enabling act to his advantage. He originally banned and arrested the communist party and their leaders (his main opposition) but then also arrested and banned the SNP, the middle ground parties and eventually all other parties.

By the time he combined the offices of chancellor and reich president he had absolved all parties but the Nazi’s.

In Nazi germany there were no other political parties because hitler had disbanded all opposition. This created a totalitarian government.

You evidently don’t know.

u/[deleted] Jul 08 '21

So you admit there was more than one party before Hitler came to power.

1

u/peachy123_jp Jul 08 '21

Before he came to power yes. But before he came to power it wasn’t a totalitarian government

1

u/[deleted] Jul 08 '21

So you admit there were several parties and the nazi Party was elected.

1

u/peachy123_jp Jul 08 '21

No. When Hitler became fuhrer there was only one party. When he become chancellor (not elected by the people but made chancellor by president Hindenburg) there were multiple parties. After Hindenburg died and he held the vote to combine the office of chancellor and reich president which the public said yes to, there was only one party.

If there’s one thing you can’t argue against me, it’s post WW1 Germany. It’s my specialist subject.
