Look, it’s not like the bad apples theory hasn’t been debated to death. If you’re uncomfortable with the “good apples” being tarnished by the “bad apples”, you’ll have a better impact by working to change the pervasive culture of:

- those “bad apples” being almost universally exempt from meaningful accountability proportional to their power and actions

- those “good apples” being unwilling to lead those accountability efforts, or even to just distance themselves from the “bad apples” to set a better example

- the clear and consistent bias overall in favor of these far right/fascist actors, including numerous times being caught on camera actively coordinating and ample video evidence of such bias in plain view

If “the police” don’t want to be viewed as a homogeneous pro-fascist force, they need to not act like one.
