Yeah, I think he mentioned it two or three times somewhere I was listening to. He is not a leftist. to normie/whitey people cops are something you call to when there are troubles, not the trouble themselves, and he is one of them.
Plus he doesn’t like absolute statements (just his quirk), if you tell him the sun always shines, he will ask you about nighttime.
Maybe I'll go through his old articles (and substack stuff?) about BLM. I'm curious what he said. I used to respect him back in 2009-10 when I read some of his stuff about the 2008 near second great depression. He was one of the rare journalists who did his homework, had a cynical eye, did actual journalism, and explained what happened very well.
But that those articles are now more than a decade old. The more I learn about him - the more I dislike him. His takes on anything other than banksters and Wall Street seem to be very crappy.

“To jump straight from, you know seeing an episode like the George Floyd killing to ‘all cops are white supremacist murderers’, that’s unsupportable”
“Lots of non-white people are cops”
“Being a cop is a working class job”
On an episode during July 2020, while he was also there to bitch about cancel culture
Yikes.
Still shining on something
