The societal shift on this shit has been so interesting to watch.
In the 90's and 2000's to even about 2014 or so. The right and left mostly agreed that the government and militarization of the police force was a bad fucking move. When Kelly Thomas was murdered by police there were bi-partisan protests.
That was the right wing's entire platform for a long time and one of the founding principles of Conservatism as a whole. (Limited government).
The shit has started now because the left now claims that any nigger breaking the law was "Unlawfully" detained/killed by police in spite of direct evidence of said nigger being a danger to themselves or others. Conservatives obviously disagree with that.
Then you see shit like this, where it's "What in the fuck? Those pigs need to be handled". You cannot say that now though without it being a betrayal to your side and the left can not claim these cops are bad because it's white people it's happening too.
The "Experts" claim there is no rise in polarization but reading the comments on that chain alone expresses to me such a wide disconnect in political and ethical standards.
It is not a betrayal to your side. Your side has always existed outside of the false dichotomy of hostile interests presented to you. The real betrayal to your side happened in a classroom.
