I was just thinking that the GC analysis is the only one that can explain the behaviour of police forces up and down the country.

The liberal position is “It’s awful that the police are institutionally racist and misogynist, but it’s great that they stand up for LGBTQ+ people!”

No. The promotion of trans ideology is part of the misogyny.

@Felix125 that's great to hear, thank you for taking the trouble to answer. What would be your opinion of a Police force that did do these things?

As you have no experience of working in such a Police force, I assume, I accept your answer will be speculation but informed by your role.

No - its a discussion forum - to discuss things
Am i not allowed to enter the discussion?

Or would you prefer me to just agree with everything that people post
If that's the case - then "ooo yes, its all terrible isn't it - I don't know why we do it"

Our force is not doing it at all
We don't wear poppies or any Ukraine supporting stuff either

Are you paid to watch these threads and try to shut them down with looooong post, Felix?

@Felix125 , the issue is that a police force should not be doing this horrible, anti-woman stuff AT ALL.

Would you say that it was ok to, say, wear kkk hoods if you only did it for 0.001 % of your time?

Of course not (to answer my own question). Your force should not be doing it at all.

Our force has nothing rainbow like and if we are directed to police a parade and blow a whistle as part of it - it only takes up 0.001% of the activities we do.

Yes, of course.

Wearing rainbow suits and face paint and blowing a whistle at a parade requires precisely zero introspection or questioning of what seem to be deeply embedded structural sexism within the police.
