Link me one significant policymaker, pundit, protest movement head or thought leader who "insists" on "abolition". Hell, I'll even take a name brand blogger.

People say crazy shit somewhere, I'm sure. But even the Chapo folks aren't calling for this in the way you mean.
- neonate 6y agoBy the way, I'm not trying to put the idea down. I think police abolition is an interesting proposal and a lot of work and thought has been put into it. It erases those thinkers when we say "they don't really mean it" and bundle them in with much weaker proposals. They do really mean it, and the debate is important.
