All over the country, in cities big and small, police departments are recruiting tiny fractions of what they used to be able to. Cleveland's graduating class from police academy this year was 9 piglets. In 2000, they had 87. Similar drops are happening all over the country. Cities may be refusing to defund, but their PDs are shrinking anyways because the vast majority of people have realized that cops are basically evil.
You say that now, just wait until the Azov PD is recruited to "stabilize" American cities
how are there any of them left?
Wars are great at radicalizing people, and azov had a head start even before the war with their "summer camps" so I don't doubt they have quite a pool of recruits to choose from
True, though now I'm curious about what would end the cycle. If the population of young adult men in Ukraine is nearly halved and they're still recruiting willing nationalist zealots, what ends it?
Well in Nazi Germany they got as far as mobilizing the volksturm and the Red Army storming Berlin, so my guess is it'll unfortunately go pretty fucking far before the situation comes to an end
Kill one insurgent, and two rise up to take his place.
