One of my new friends is/was a cop. Just found out about it. I genuinely believe ACAB, and this news has me conflicted because my new friend seems really cool and super nice. I don’t know him super well yet, though. He’s a big part of this new friend group and I don’t know how to process this and how to deal with the fact he’s a cop.
I don’t want to look past the fact he’s a cop, but I want to stay his friend and stay in this friend group.
Any advice for dealing with this shit?
I can’t talk to my therapist about it until Thursday.
Never talk about the things you know you shouldn’t. My cousin and I are exactly as before. EXCEPT politics. It’s a brotherhood. You could grow up together for decades but they’re gonna believe whatever they hear from the guys purporting they’d take bullets for them.
