i can imagine the protests scared a bunch of rubes.
If ur in a poor community i can imagine "becoming a cop" might be a solution to you, i mean i hear that reason a lot from minority law enforcement.
Also like, between warehouse worker, fast food, cable guy, construction, maybe COP might be more respectable and "worth" doing iunno
I didn't say it was because Biden is boring and a neoliberal. I gave you an answer based on materialism. And what we're talking about here is a small increase for Trump, who lost the election. It's not like there was a huge shift in demographics. The majority of marginalized groups still went for Biden or stayed home. We had record voter turnout this year though, so not as many people stayed home. Probability wise, it's more likely that most of the minority groups who know cops voted for Biden or stayed home.
If you want to theorycraft or have a hot take about politics, you can, but don't make this inconsequential argument the hill you die on. Even if you're 100% correct, what does it mean? Like are we supposed to all become cops so those people care about us? You're just trying really hard to make this argument work for very little payoff.
