I was at an airport and ordered a margarita at a Sammy Hagar restaurant, they didn't have prices on the menu and I didn't ask first and when the bill came it was like $17 for the margarita and I knew I got owned hard by The Red Rocker. It was a good margarita though.

I hate that airport bars do this but let's face it as long as it's not over $20 and I'm stuck here either way I'm getting a whiskey double

Armed militias are worse than cops on paper but cause they're unaccountable to anyone but themselves. Of course, it turns out so are cops, cause bootlickers let them get away with literally whatever.

The ex-cop Militias who started to take over the favelas in Rio turned out to be bigger bastards than the drug traffickers because other than continuing than deal drugs they started extorting everyone who lived on the area for basic services.

Yeah this is what all militias end up doing eventually, despite what anarchists seem to think. The solution is cops, but actually well trained and accountable.

The way I see the "There's no such a thing as a good cop" thing, it doesn't necessarily imply you want a world without cops, especially one replacing them with militias.

There's no such a thing as a good barrel of radioactive waste or a good pesticide; it's all quite inherently dangerous, almost unavoidably damaging things that you should be always wary of, and in the potential utopic long term, hope to do without.

In a perfect world, you'd have no use for cops; the best they can ever be is justified, necessary evil with minimized negative effects. The point of loading the attitude as by default negative is you should be always wary of them, and you should by default be prepared to face and deal with adversity from them. Of course, this negativity shouldn't be aimed at the persons of the ones who legitimately try their human, moral best. My best pal's brother is a cop, and he's real cool. It also shouldn't keep you from cooperating them in situations where it's the best option. But it should ideally keep you on your toes around them, it should keep you from needlessly snitching on people who you have no quarrel with. It should naturally make you very wary and opposed to further growth of their privilege and powers, etc.

That's my homegrown hot take of the day.

To bring back a conversation from the succ zone, there are occasional good cops, but they tend to shoot themselves in the back of the head twice the day before they're scheduled to testify against the bad cops.

Police isn't, like, a fact of nature. Someone invented it, there wasn't "police" before, there was something worse, and hopefully there can be something better in its place
