Panel1:Hey fellas, I hear a lot of calls for abolishing police. But how will we stay safe?”
Panel2:King. police abolition work is not about defunding every department instantly. It's about a gradual process of strategically reallocating resources, funding, and responsibility away from police and toward community-based models of safety, support, and prevention. The people who respond to crises in our community should be people who are best-equipped to deal with those crises.
Panel3:Friend, I want to echo that last statement and dig down a little further. Crime isn't random. Most of the time, it happens when someone has been unable to meet their basic needs through other means. By shifting money away from police and toward services that actually meet those needs, we'll be able to get to a place where we won't need to rob banks.
Panel4:Couldn't have said it better myself, King! This is bigger than just police brutality; it's about how the prison industrial complex, the drug war, immigrati

The message is never actually "you should hate x (drag shows, wokeness, whatever) because it's bad," but rather, "you should hate x because *I say* it's bad." Their goal (like that of any tyrant or cult leader) is to become the arbiters of reality.

This exactly is why pointing out hypocrisy doesn't work. All you're really doing is reinforcing the image they are trying to project of a powerful person who is not beholden to the constraints that restrain the rest of us.

@knilirabaj.bsky.social you reskeet this person sometimes and this language is problematic For the life of me I can’t find these skeets to give you the link.
a skeet by Anonsee that says 

What. That’s not accurate at all. I told Em that she should repost the thread in which I said white trans folks are still white but also still marginalized. What “upsetting mastodon screenshot” are you talking about?

You know I take poorly to being lied about. Please don’t so I can remain kind.

A reply posted by Sparkling Dystopia says 

“You know I take poorly to being lied about. Please don’t so I can remain kind.”

That’s one way to blame other people for your actions?The next skeet is from Sparkling Dystopia and says 

I like reading your stuff. You share things I haven’t thought about or can’t say well. But that statement isn’t cool.

Anonsee replies 

Alright, let me adjust to your expectations for my reply. 

I’ve been dealing with crackers in multiple portions of my life repeatedly lying about me in the past week, its my biggest trigger, my patience is shot. 

I’m not blaming, I’m warning how I’m moments from responding. It’s a kindness.

I am desperately trying to get my life together AND find a 2nd job, but no luck yet. I really dislike having to ask for rent assistance again ($700), but here I am. Thank you! 💙 paypal.me/rookkilljoy C*shapp & V*nmo: foxrook gofund.me/a6b0a356
Hiya, friends. I wanted to not wait til the last minute to try crowdfunding for rent and honestly I had hoped work would have picked up more. In the meantime, I've been trying to find another job my body will let me do but without luck so far. I just need to keep checking in. But that won't pay rent and so I'm back to ask for assistance. This month has not been kind to me and I just want to stay housed. Thank you all so much for being wonderful and supporting how you can. Sending much love to all y'all.

You’re telling me that the most powerful person in the country is a good guy but he seems to be weirdly allowing violent fascists to do whatever they want, including interstate stochastic terror campaigns - Then that good powerful man is a god damned accomplice of the fascists.

like, a coherent analysis of policing needs to understand that policing is in no way connected to, or seeking to deliver, community safety and/or accountability. if you’ve gotten to accusations of policing absent this analysis, you’ve completely lost the plot and shouldn’t be taken seriously

Wow. TL;DR: Bill Willingham is the lovely creator/writer of the Fables series of comics created for DC. He owns (or owned) the intellectual property rights. Due to reasons in the article - which amount to shenanigans from DC and his own philosophy - he decided to give the IP to the public domain.
