They can’t plausibly be fired if they all stick together and refuse to enforce tyranny. They choose to put up with it because they either agree with it or because they’re complacent and they value their own self-interest more than they value the oaths they took.

Quit making excuses for commie cops. It’s one thing to “put up with bullshit” and it’s another thing to blatantly violate the rights of civilians by putting them under tyranny.

It's easy to be a keyboard warrior.

I haven’t said anything that would make me a “keyboard warrior” but nice try.

Telling others via an online medium to do what you want, regardless of what motivates them to do what they have committed themselves to doing, is the definition of a keyboard warrior.

"Oh, they could if they just banded together" as if it's so easy. It isn't. Humans don't work like that.

If you want to change minds, work on changing minds. Saying "they ought to do what I want or they are commies" is super easy from a non-participant's perspective.

“Telling others via an online medium to do what you want, regardless of what motivates them to do what they have committed themselves to doing, is the definition of a keyboard warrior.“

-And that’s not what I did. Try again. I’m saying what people should do but I’m certainly not disregarding motives or barking out orders. Don’t egregiously misinterpret any strong suggestion as an order.

“as if it's so easy. It isn't. Humans don't work like that.”

-It is easy and it just requires a bit of leadership. The sheriff just has to say “we ain’t enforcing it” and that’s all there is to it. It’s natural for humans to unite under strong leadership.

“If you want to change minds, work on changing minds“

-That’s exactly what I’m doing and I'm doing it through peaceful and voluntary means.

“Saying "they ought to do what I want or they are commies" is super easy from a non-participant's perspective.“

-I’m just saying that people shouldn’t act like commies. I obviously don’t want them to act like commies...

LOL And it's easy for some people to say they're not wearing a mask when they ARE.
