Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #towardaworldwithoutpolice, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Clearly someone has many big feelings about and against cops, which is as it should be. Or else they simply wanted to drive the point home to each and every passerby on these stolen, surveilled, policed lands of Tio’tia:ke/Montreal. Or maybe they want to extra annoy any cop who drives by. Or perhaps they believe that “three’s the charm” to cast the spell of abolition.

    No matter the reasoning, including that maybe they were using up the last bits of various cans of different-colored spray paint or were practicing different lettering styles, it’s always a good day to publicly declare #AllCopsAreBad. That is, until this acronym only means, plainly and daily, #AutonomousCommunitiesAreBeautiful because policing is obsolete.

    For now, don’t be on the fence about police (unless you’re tagging it with #ACAB).

  6. We don’t need videos.

    As the Ayotzinapa 43 families have been saying since 2014, after 43 beloveds in Iguala, Guerrero, were disappeared and likely murdered, including by police, “We want them back alive.”

    Meaning: they never should have been killed.

    We shouldn’t need videos to somehow prove that we want every single person murdered-by-cop to be alive. That their names should still be spoken to them, here in this world. That each and every person assassinated by police was loved and lovable, and never deserved that kind of death.

    We shouldn’t need videos as evidence that there are no good cops.

    The proof is in the grieving people left behind, the uprisings fueled by rage and sorrow, the abolitionist and stop cop cities/academies organizing and direct action, the myriad forms of solidarity, the murals and tags on urban walls, the DIY altars.

    “We want them back alive.”

    For that to have full meaning, we want and need and fight for a world without police.
