scientific institutions aren’t “corrupted” by racism or sexism, they developed specifically in the context of white and male supremacy. modern medicine developed, in part, to provide a biological basis for oppression and to pathologize the vast majority of the world’s population, all women and all “nonwhite” people. not only that, but many of the major developments in medicine have directly been at the expense of marginalized people. oppressive regimes also often rely on scientific institutions to further subjugate the population.

anybody else’s fb timeline full of ppl who were so close to realizing out loud that their society (if not their whole civ) relies on an armed force that operates outside of “the law” to maintain the violence that the whole thing depends on until they saw some celebrity say “actually let’s just defund the bad cops”

I think so many recent theories and models of police abolition or dissolution are illustrating how deeply authoritarian-minded people and institutions can be in the U.S. as a cultural tendency. (not limited to the U.S. obviously but our culture is like a full capitalist white supremacist flanderization of it.) the rush of every variety of person or profession to theoretically fill the gap of “police” with themselves as the social machinery of control in our societies should be something people are making a note of and actively questioning, is all I’m saying.

We shouldn’t abolish or defund the police only to turn over the tools of social control, suppression, marginalization, and systemic exploitation (all still in incredibly colonialist / racist ways) to someone else with slightly better PR. like I think falling in line with the schulmanesque model of ‘state-dispatched college-educated social worker response teams’ is not the direction we should be heading in immediately as a goal or aspiration. like even completely not addressing the actual ways these various entities (like in social work and education and law and NGO activism) have worked to reinforce the cultural status quo we’re in, we still just need a better model than “well there has to be some specific group of people summoned to maintain what I think the social order should be. my demand for a better society just means choosing who that is.”

“Tell me, Wu Guang, what is the penalty for rioting?”

“The police will shoot us with tear gas and rubber bullets and arrest us, Chen Sheng”

“And for peacefully protesting?”

“The police will shoot us with tear gas and rubber bullets and arrest us”

“I see. And if we stay at home?”

“Ah, then they’ll just shoot rubber bullets and cs pellets at us through our doorways and windows.”

“Well then…”
