STUDY RESULTS
GIVING POOR PEOPLE MONEY REDUCES CRIME MORE THAN GIVING COPS THAT SAME AMOUNT OF MONEY
CONCLUSION
If you want to reduce crime, take care of your community’s primary needs instead of funding cops so much

Heh, you think we don’t know?

          Ohhhhhh, just fuck off with that mawkish bullshit

          Nobody likes prisons

          They should not be a place of punishment, but of rehabilitation

          But your soap-dodging horse-shit goes beyond naivety, firmly into the swamp of stupidity

          This kind of idiocy is the sort of shit that RWNJs seize upon to try to discredit the efforts of us who actually want to make the world a better place

          Grow the fuck up.

            Oh fuck off with your naive and uneducated take on the abolition of police and the carceral justice system.

            Educate yourself on the anarchist perspective and do some growing up yourself first.

              Anarchy doesn’t work because humans suck. Telling someone to grow up when you have such a hugely childish perspective is hilarious.

                Cool story. Fuck that misanthropic, uneducated take.

                It isn’t childish to have an understanding that humanity is more than it’s behavior under capitalism

                Go study history and anthropology and lose that shitty, self-defeating mentality

                  Hi

                  I studied political and economic anthropology at university

                  I eagerly await you telling me that I must have studied it wrong

                    Read David Graeber’s work, PhD anthropologist who wrote multiple books on this very subject, because his work expressly disagrees with those notions.
