Why don’t marxists like the police?

[Anonymous]

Makes no sense. I mean they typically hate anyone who has a job but they hate police officers the most.

I guess they see the police as the enforcers of a system they don't believe in.

The only thing I have an issue with is at if they wish to enforce their system, they'd need police, so to speak.

A Marxist would argue that the police/state is the weapon used to protect the property owning class from revolution. The lapdogs of the rich, as they might say.

That post is stupid.

Poster, replace Republicans with Democrats, and Fox News with CNN and it would actually be true.

Police is the blunt weapon of the state. Marxist wants a stateless society.

Lots of Marxists today want to overthrow the hierarchy as it’s oppressive and the police enforce the system.
