- tomrod 3y agoI don't agree with ACAB, but I do agree that there is a lot of dirty behavior out there that shouldn't be swept away with a weak, reductionist call to "childish reductionism."
- macksd 3y agoWhat's your argument here? That corrupt police who run protection rackets are worth it because they will, in the end, actually protect your family from gangs of 100+ people?
- toss1 3y agoJust because X does good things and serves a genuinely useful purpose, does NOT mean that X cannot also do bad things that damage the community In fact, both are almost inevitably true on any given day on both the best and the worst situations. The key is ensuring that the balance is on the good side. This requires distributing power, not allowing it to concentrate in too few hands.
