This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Just like with police. A minority of bad cops give all cops a bad name.

Except motorcyclists aren't an inherent part of a purposely oppressive system that routinely does horrific things as a core part of its working.

If a motorcyclist calls another out for bad behavior they don't (usually) have to risk their life and livelihood to do so.

ACAB comes from the idea that it's not possible to remain in that group as a subjectively good person.

I get it, you hate motorcyclists, possibly for good reason but the idea that a genuine equivalence exists between them and police is absurd.

I get the impression that's supposed to be some kind of gotcha, kinda seems like projection though.

If you don't want to (or feel like you can't) engage on a point, no one is forcing you, it says enough that this is your response.
