        Alright you've played your hand at this point. Calling the bluff, this is a bit

          Haha I'm afraid it totally isn't!

          I do non-ironically appreciate the indignant responses because they have me thinking more deeply about what "class" is.

          Don't get me wrong, I believe in an ideal world there would be no military, no police.

          I support "defunding" the police, and withdrawing our troops from abroad.

          But I don't believe in demonizing the individuals. Nor do I think having a military or a police force is intrinsically wrong.

          And yeah, I'm sympathetic towards the ACAB sentiment since I've never once had a positive experience with cops. Mostly scared of getting murdered.

          But again, I think it's really important to direct our hatred and anger towards the right places.
