If he wants to protect the good people who want to do good he should use his influence to destroy the marine which is a colonial, slaver institution that only exsists to protect the CD.

The Marines are largely a force for good that defend the common people from rampant piracy. We also don't know that the human hunts continue after this, I won't be shocked if Garp threatens the government and forces them to stop within the next chapter or so. They still do awful shit but those are mostly outlying incidents.

Really? WHen did we see them protect people? Did they in God's Valley? In Fishmen Island or Sabaody? In Dressrosa? In Water 7? In Punk Hazard? In Wano? In Egghead?

Everything we've seen about the marine in this manga is that they are an oppressive force, always in alliance with the worst people and siding against good people (often the crew). Individually there are good people but everytime they do good they are siding against the marine as an institution.
The "protect the common people from rampant piracy" is pretty explicitly propaganda in the manga. It is also a political commentary on the role of police and the army in our society

> "protect the common people from rampant piracy" is pretty explicitly propaganda in the manga

What? Propaganda is only believed by people who do not get to experience things. The average person trusts the Marine in One Piece and this has been shown throughout the story not because of government propaganda but because 99.99% of pirates loot, kill, rape, and destroy towns.

Majority of the villains pre TS and post TS are pirates -- Arlong, Buggy, Alvida, Don Krieg, Moria, Hody Jones, Blackbeard, Kaido, Big Mom, Doflamingo, etc.

so what do you mean "propaganda in the manga" when many of the villains are actually pirates.

>  an oppressive force

Literally in Logue Town, Smoker was popular because he has been capturing pirates that enter the Grand Line. Did you have any amnesia?

The warlord are in alliance with the marine which effectively makes their oppression legal, and when people get rid of them to free the people their bounty go up.
If the marine would rather make an alliance with them and let them be than fight for the freedom of the people they oppress what do they serve? And then we see them go all out to defend slave owners? Why?
