I had to lookup what ACAB meant. Here's a summary: The Wikipedia article on "ACAB" discusses the acronym's usage in various contexts, primarily as an anti-police slogan. It explains that "ACAB" stands for "All Cops Are Bastards" and has been associated with criticism of law enforcement, especially in cases of police brutality and misconduct. The article also delves into its origins, history, and controversies surrounding its use, highlighting the differing opinions on its message. Additionally, it covers related topics such as "1312," an alternative numerical representation of ACAB. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACAB

I'm honestly surprised that someone that spends enough time on the internet to end up on lemmy doesn't know about ACAB.

Smells like bullshit for some reason to me but at the end of the day it changes nothing for me also so whatever

I like also like "All cops are bad" for when you want to get the message across without cursing or disparaging the parentless
