Usage of ACAB in your particular context amongst the general population is, yes.


I disagree, it has been growing day by day. That why these article out there because it has become a common term used in this way and people are taking it to mean what you keep arguing it does instead of taking the time to understand.
If my tone is coming off as a little harsh, please call me out on it, I rarely mean to come off that way.

I think you'll fallen back into bad faith again


Thanks and I apologize to New California I get a little riled up.

But allow them to parse out the meaning of other words and phrases and should do the same here, and removed it from an "if you see this report this, to a think about it and then report, and let the mods think about it"

"All forms of modern policing are corrupt and should be abolished" - not rulebreaking.
"All police departments are terrible institutions" - not rulebreaking
"All cops are bastards" - rulebreaking as it attacks all cops as "bastards."

It attacks the people who do police work and many of the players here are police. It riles people up and makes people likely to flame, troll, or post other rulebreaking content. There's a reason why it's banned.

Yeah and I couldn't care any less about the mundane ramblings of a bootlicker like yourself.

You've just got back from a 1 day ban; going straight on with flaming gets you a *** 3 day ban *** this time.

It's clear that a number of actors in this thread are not posting in good faith, and the thread has gone significantly downhill. I'm therefore locking it, and it will stay that way.

"ACAB" is trolling, and will continue to be punished as such.
