I’m talking about those youtube videos.

Feels like lowkey copaganda to me.

    lemmy finds out that the police do more than just appearing in green left weekly articles after beating up a minority

      american cops have some of the worst crime clearance rates on earth despite having the largest budgets.

      vs some civilized countries:

      they put up these impressive numbers while sucking down most of the budget in every town, while abusing minorities and the homeless and anyone else they can. You ever have to deal with cops for insurance when you get robbed? They are making sure you aren’t scamming the insurance company, who they actually work for. They don’t give a fuck about helping you.

      Wonder why those leftists aren’t happy with the state of things 🤔

      Wonder why anyone could be pleased with it tbh.

        Those are cherrypicked numbers. You are comparing COVID America to pre-covid other countries. France dropped from 80% to 50% in 2020

      I wish you weren’t downvoted. It’s not one or the other. There can be terrible systemic problems with law enforcement and amazing people working in law enforcement at the same time.

      Even if you take a US-centric view there is a huge variance in police work across the nation.
