    I think that “ACAB” is a bad thing, however I have to admit that this is clever

        Cops are a bad thing… In the US. Also not all cops, even in the US. ;)

          And yet, their actions say otherwise.

          This is like saying there are “good” Trump supporters. There are people who don’t believe or realize they’re fascists, but that doesn’t excuse their fascism. The net result on society is negative, so they are all objectively “bad”.

      ACAB isn’t about individual cop’s moral qualities, it’s about them as a whole institution enforcing unfair systems

        And, as the recent FBI agent quitting over being forced to switch a murder investigation into something is not for politics, there are no good cops. There are bad cops and cops that quit the force. Good people don’t seek the rush of shooting others.
