When I think of cops my mind goes to bombing babies in their bedrooms, shooting the dog, burning down the house, and planting drugs on the corpse. That’s not great imo.
When I think of “mob rule” or community policing if you want to frame it with less sinister words, I think of people stepping up to defend their community
If there’s dedicated people to enforce those rules, that’s just police
And if everyone enforces those rules, is that what you think the police is today?
Anyway I’m going to go eat now, there’s a link somewhere in here if you want to learn more about it.
I think that sounds a bit like mob justice/vigilantism.
Yes, following mob rules as decided by the mob.
Much preferable to the current system of rules written by rulers, enforced by abusers.
I mean my mind goes to lynchings and such. That’s not great imo

Sounds like the mob thing can be good or bad depending on the mob in question. Which imo makes it same as police in that respect
The core difference being you are part of the mob, you are not part of the police.
I don’t know if that helps if the other people in the mob are shit and want to do shitty things tbh.
Okay but right now the mob wants fascism, so… no.
Maaaaate, right now you already have fascism.
