gotta agree with you

most cops here (slovenia) actually do help the community they serve

i remember getting pissed on reddit because someone used a slovene police officer on a horse to promote ACAB while ignoring the entire backstory of the picture which contradicted their entire post

the whole world isnt the same as the US or western europe

AND BEFORE I GET CALLED A BOOTLICKER

i support neither the ACAB movement nor the corrupt cops that try their hardest to power trip over innocent people

The ACAB movement Americanizes other countries' police forces needlessly.

ACAB states that there are inherent problems in the concept of the police. The first "A" stands for "all", after all.

And the second "A" stands for "Are"! I like this game!!

Some tankies claim that Sovjet, GDR, or Chinese police are/were based and still shout "ACAB", because they just dislike liberal capitalism police.

They should be reminded of the first "A".

In authoritarian structures, the facts are dictated by the authority, not reality. When the authority and reality come into conflict, and you choose to side with reality, you are at danger of bodily harm or death.

Many people consider life and death to be more important than what letters and words mean, so I would imagine your proposal is simply impossible at any large scale, in any place where the people more inclined towards uprisings have already been killed.
