I said it on another post as well, but Democrats probably do like cops and soldiers as much as the Republicans if not more. Democrats want a truly professionalized settler-colonial apparatus to protect them and their urban PMC/petite bourgeois base from the poor. This necessitates them critiquing policing as it exists however. They dislike that any racist shithead with a highschool diploma can join the force and gun down people in the streets because it makes the racial and class nature of the state very clear. Democrats want cops who are trained for four to six years in how to be a polite colonial enforcer. Democrats want cops to more like USAID and less like the marines.
Republicans retain a frontier culture and mindset, which means they empathize with cops brutalizing black people because that's what they want to do. At the same time some recognize the repressive force of the police and actively dislike them. Regardless, the only frame of reference they could criticize police from is from their imagined position in the frontier which is as amateur settler-colonists oppressing non-whites. This is the same affect many police have so Republicans reject any criticism of the police.
republicans hate the state for not being shittty enough. dems love institutions for the mere fact of existing. the dems have unconditional love for cops and gunboys. They love them in the form of agape. R's love them conditionally, so long as they serve the purpose, this is one of the of the many other greek words for love im not enough of a pedophile to remember
I mean like 80% of the time you see someone with "support our troops" it's a Republican, and 99% of the people with thin blue lines are Republicans
But Dems definitely do worships soldiers too, just not as much. For cops it depends
republicans say that the police and military are useless for protection

Never heard this about the military.

They only say this about cops to encourage gun sales.
and enemies of the people
A few rioters were saying this. Most everyday Republicans absolutely do not believe this.
Whether it’s real or LARP
No, if it's a larp, then it's bullshit that should be disregarded.

> They only say this about cops to encourage gun sales.Its basically the reason given for having all the guns of all the types (from all of the youtube adds about concealed carry/home defense with firearms I keep getting). If somebody is robbing you at gunpoint a cop isn't there to keep you from being robbed/shot so you've got to have a gun to "protect" yourself. As far a military goes, its the "fight them over there so that we don't have to fight them over here" crowd. Military won't protect you, personally, from a home invasion or having your car stolen, so the military is bad at protecting your individual private property.

Well both praise them because they protect them. Cops and troops both serve capital and the monied class the elites of both parties represent. Remember we have two right leaning parties here in the states. The best you're going to get out of dems are some weak knee attempts to give the police less money that go nowhere.
Yes 100000000000000%
They are not allies. They’ve abandoned BLM and frankly the left has been using baby gloves with them on this.
This is the dumbest thread I’ve read on here for a while. Literally everythang is false.
