The Director General of the National Crime Agency and European Police Chiefs are calling for industry and governments to take urgent action to ensure public safety across technology platforms.
It’s the Police, they are trained to handle bad people, so they see bad people everywhere and treat everyone (depending in Level of racism) as a potential bad person.
It’s a fundamental part of the system. When you as a human give power over your life to somebody else or accept that other people have power over you, then that power will inevitably attract the worst of society who will attempt to use that power that you have granted them. The only way out of this is to completely reject the premise of large government. No one person should be beholden to a large central entity. At least here in the United States, I think the state government should be about as big as government gets and completely abolish the federal government because it is just abusive and too far away from the people.
From the outside it honestly looks like half of what the federal government does is prevent certain states from abusing their people.
The problem isn’t large governments, you get abuse of power even on a very local level, think small town mayor or police or even in some hobby related clubs with just a few members.
Also, there is plenty of abuse when you don’t give any power to someone but they just take it because there is nobody to prevent them from taking it.
Yes, there is definitely abuse on local levels, but the abuse is extremely localized and cannot grow outside of a small sphere of influence, which don’t get me wrong, sucks for the people under that influence, but as long as they have the free right to leave its Okay, because you will have corrupt areas competing for people with non-corrupt areas and people will generally want to live in a non-corrupt area. If my city police are corrupt, and I move 20 miles to the next city, they no longer have influence over me, whereas if the US government is corrupt, then anywhere I go within 3,000 miles is still under their influence.
Is hating basic rights a requirement for that job or does it just attract those kinds of people?

Wich in turn makes them into bad people.
