    Totally correct. But it's important to note that the 'slight' rise has definitely been felt. It's important to remember it's not JUST fear-mongering, which I think certain defund-the-police discussions miss. The working class is bearing the brunt of the rise in crime. I think the Eric Adams election was telling.

    Obviously defund the police and ACAB, but the majority of 2020 BLM messaging missed on this IMO.
