This sounds very much like the critiques I heard of “black lives matter”. Wait, are you saying white lives don’t matter?

Where do these slogans come from? Are they designed by conservatives to make liberals look bad?

“Black lives matter” is a much more defensible slogan, because if you believe all human life matters, you should also support the idea that black lives matter.

“Defund the police” is much worse because it’s explicitly naming and promoting a policy idea which activists promise they don’t actually want.

Why lie about what you want?
