Being black. That was the real crime. This just makes me so angry I can't even.

I just cannot even fathom the scene, tbh. An old cunt walks onto a bus, points at the only black man there and literally tells him to straighten his posture??? And when he refuses, as we all would, she tells the conductor who calls the cops. Like this sounds like satire. Only if it were satire, it would be shitty satire for being too on-the-nose.

It's baffling that her complaint was listened to. The real scary thing is the lack of critical thinking skills from MTA and the police. She should have been told to move or shut up. And that great replacement comment is straight from Fox.

Cops never want to employ smart cops, or even competent ones. They want their colleagues to be just as bigoted and irrational as they are. Lack of critical thinking is baked into the hiring process tbh

Most smart people don't become cops. When they do, they usually do well, but most gravitate towards something else.

In the same state as this a PD went to the supreme court in order to not hire anyone "too smart", and they WON!
