      "Oh, no, this one specific person didn't include a full policy proposal in their tweet. I guess we're just alienating people now!"

      :this: is you. You know full well what "abolish the police" means. The police as we know it need to no longer exist: fire them all, and take all the money back we were spending on them. Create programs to address the material conditions that cause crime in the first place. The "new police" that would exist afterwards would be highly educated, extensively trained in deescalation, and only called in serious life-or-death situations. The litmus test should be, "Do I need men with guns to roll up, prepared to take a life to save another life?" and they should be as well educated as doctors.
