Okay follow me. If you want to control your population you have to have an army, you have to have big guns and soldiers that look like they know what they’re doing with fear-inducing pants-shiting artillery.
Use of the military for civilian law enforcement and associated activities is strictly prohibited by the Constitution. Thank God. So what is an authoritarian bipolar government going to do? Step 1 would be to militarize the police, because their job is to control the population. Gather up all the not quite ready for civilian life ex-military and not quite ready for the military types you can find. Give them a three week comprehensive crash course and a whole bunch of YouTube videos and the stereotypical cop image becomes one of a Rambo type Soldier cop. Waging the War on Something. Alone, without backup or permission. Because that’s how the hero does it in the Movies! As more and more of these types become police, the abuses and misconducts increase in number and severity. The strong and numerous picking on the few and weak. Just like in high school when they were big “men” on campus. Going home to beat on their wives and children because that’s how Dad did it and The Department doesn’t feel mental health is a pressing concern. That’s because the people making decisions are from the “if you self-medicate and obfuscate. Things will be great” generation. We don’t talk about those things. Shhh.
After 30 years of this shit, you demonize the police , put a rotten peach puppet in the oblong office to eventually piss everyone off to the point that any trace of this orange sock puppet is scrubbed from history, the collective consciousness of the nation and Home Alone 2.
Have said Tang Haired string puppet continue to stir shit, cummulating in a carefully planned to look extremely spur of the moment staged assault that had no chance of doing anything except what it was designed to do on the building where politicians collude to fuck We the People. Oh no.
We the F%#n' People
