communicating with police officers, narratives, discrimination
Some people seem to like to direct their anger at external authorities, or treat certain other humans with disdain because they've had a bad experience with someone else of the same profession/job/ race/ sex/ whatever. There are bad apples around, but it may be in your personal interest to keep in mind that many police officers at least originally joined the police because they either wanted to make a positive difference in their community, and/or they actually wanted to see righteousness upheld in their community and the obvious corollary, to see unrighteousness be held to account. Such principles at least in their essence are honourable, and with inherent dignity. As many with open eyes can see, there are powerful forces at work today, particularly in the USA, which are acting with the intention to bring about great chaos in your communities, and one way they do this is by using their dogs in the media to try to program the sheeple to see external authorities as purely negative and without any redeeming factors. Such dichotomies or black and white absolutes, are obviousy false even at a quick glance, and we do no favour to ourselves, or to those we care about, to hold to such black/white bullshit. When roaming gangs come to the door of you and those you love, a natural instinct for many is to immediately seek the support of external authorities which at least nominally are intended to be in such a role of support. We are all human, with human failings and human tendencies. We ought consider carefully the "mainstream media" narratives we are fed, and the foundation intentions which might be underlying the messages put to us. We each play a role in creating our world, and sitting on the fence "as a mugwud bird, with his mug on one side, and his wud on the other side of that fence, pretending to be impartial" is an actual choice, and in this sense is a very real action, with very real consequences - because you see, he might think he is "impartial", but he still shits on one side of the fence... Our maker endowed us with some capacity for discrimination, and perhaps now is a useful time to get back to using this power of discrimination, to actively discriminate between right and wrong, truth and bullshit, good and evil.

Here you begin treating people with disdain ("bad apples") which you criticize doing in the paragraph prior. Let's not treat people with disdain. I've bumped into some really nice police officers. It seems highly unfortunate they direct people to prisons instead of mediation. I have not found any avenue to mediate with police. We need police officers who can break the thin blue wall of silence, to reach censorship-resistant communication channels. it may be in your personal interest to keep in mind that many police

Well police officers do have blaming, endangering, and harming people as their job right now, under the label of serving and protecting other people.

What's most important is handling what actually happens, yes, but I differentiate between who people are, and what harm they are one of the causes of. For example, it is kind of you to defend those of us who have been severely harmed by a cop, but to cops it is an un-nice thing to express worthlessness around them. I do not take sides in the end. I still have experiences I am passionate about.

May be if you don't limit it to cops, but include any "unnecessary use of violence", then it could be more likely to garner omni partisan support, rather than be seen by one particular as a direct attack on them - which seems counter productive. To this end, you could call it "moron watch". As soon as partisanship shows it's ugly troll face, you will lose supporters, you lose the moral high ground, and you turbo charge the divisions that are happening that some people like to deny...

Here in the US, I have bumped into massive quantities of people both on the left and on the right, who dislike police and want to reign them in. But I agree that handling _all_ unnecessary violence would be a great thing and ideal. There's energy around copwatch after the BLM thing, more people involved, but for those free to spread there wings observation of other forms of violence would be a natural progression. And it is a lot easier to take action on issues outside your own country. I'm okay with "moron watch"; I think more people could be included if we didn't pick a name that criticized the perpetrators, since they may be exposed to even more events: how about "violence leaks" maybe?

I can keep a few of them on my HD if that's of any use.

the job description of the police has always been "to serve and protect the ruling class". They enforce the 'laws' that politicians make up. Cops are hitmen who do whatever they are told to do. The only possible good cop is one that turns against his masters and so stops being a cop.

yeah people who are in the wrong don't want to admit that they are in the wrong. Same reason why the US govt and supporters invade and loot the whole world and murder tens of millions of people while pretending they are the good guys, bringing 'freedom' Same reason why US military employee musk wants to bring 'free internet' to iran . You probably can find a few more examples of criminals pretending that they have the high moral ground....

The police here tend to be lazy and corrupt so that partially limits the damage they cause, but not that much.

Something I'm cognitively strong enough to take action on is the "occasionally". Sorry for my last email going out twice towards you. I'm thinking maybe if I can get a new phone or fix my computer I can get set up with a bright reminder notice over my email send button. Maybe I can think of a way to do that without requiring that.

I am saying that "bad apples" is a disdainful opinion. I note it also spreads disbelief in mediation to solve problems without violence.

Why are you saying that the phrase "bad apples" is _not_ appropriate to describe for example police who use excessive force or violence, or lawyers or news readers who lie?
Many of the problems of police enforcement, especially unwarranted violence, cannot be solved until the human officers are replaced by androids. The almost universal reason for excessive violence are unfit officers and the officer's fear of injury or death. When this is no longer a factor there is no longer a reason for this violence.

hey Steven, is that a conscious attempt at irony/trolling? ...or else...

There is not much difference between a US cop and an android now... same zombie, fanatic I guess... yeah... with police robots will be much better indeed :-) This will solve all issue. Why not also giving them power to make the law like the Judge Dreed character in the US comics ? Or that robocop alternative, 'Cain' aka "you've got fifty seconds to comply" Seriously I wonder why this list is for cypherpunks... People here want robot-cops, praise pro-cops protesters, praise techno-control etc... I'm sorry my understanding of life is ... leave me alone, let me live as I want and don't control me.

Sincere advice: - Avoid serious romantic relationships and living with parents, hahahaha!! ;D I do love living alone since I was a pretty cute girl, but there are always too much bureaucracy, and bills, taxes, home disasters, whatever...
