It does seem to matter that every country on earth has an enforcement arm of the law. The state can’t function without it and it’s impossible to envision any form of social order where it doesn’t exist, right?

I think that’s why “defund” is beyond problematic as slogan. We may not have had success so far in bringing our police to heel but it doesn’t seem to me that we have much alternative. Federalizing or nationalizing seems like a good first step.
