Not sure about this one

The Snufkin profile picture paired with that comment really makes this absurdly hilarious for me.
Context: Snufkin is a character known for being extremely anti-authority. His worst enemies include park rangers.
- I'm glad someone gets it!
What's an ACAB?
- Assigned Cis At Birth
ACAB includes throws dart at board nurses btw
- ACAB includes throws dart at board humans btw
  
  Can confirm; am human bastard
- Now it does!
Absolutely not. Lifeguards literally save so many lives. Maybe it's different in the US with its weird power structures and motives, but lifeguards are more like the fire brigade than the police here...
- Ah yeah very different here in US. Our lifeguards carry M16s and routinely harass and deport Mexicans. Drowning is an arrestable offense
  
  When someone says lifeguard, I think bored teenager by the pool making sure people don't drown. Not the coast guard.
  
  the M16 in question
- Hey.
  Hey.
  It's a shitpost.
  
  :)
- Can't answer for the US since I'm not American but I do appreciate lifeguards
ACAB includes the health department too
- Don't forget about the DMV
  
  Especially the DMV
And Firefighters too! /s
- Can confirm, am a Bastard.
Most lifeguard’s are invisible, sitting there just watching for trouble. Others though are absolute fun police when you are a kid.
- I'm picturing an elite force of plain-clothed lifeguards pretending to be tourists with the same energy as undercover cops trying to buy weed off of people.
  "Man, these snack bar refreshments hit the spot! Anyone feel like swimming within 30 minutes of eating? C'mon, let's run by the pool and dive in, it'll be fun!"
  
  They'd fucking get me.
quality shitpost
also couldn't relate here in soviet communist hungary we don't have lifeguards, in fact i don't think i've ever seen one
- Never watched baywatch? :O
  
  in communist hungary no channels have baywatch, they have educational series on benefits of potato farming and about steel manufacture, but only on weekend
Look man, I'm gonna swim under that pier whether you want me to or not.
and parents.
but they do actually protect and serve though
ACAB includes teachers, including preschool teachers. They are the core pillar of government oppression and arguably even more bastards than cops themselves.
- That's great honey, by the way did you remember to take your medication this morning?
  
  It is true in Russia though, they are the first to fold helping to fake the elections and then indoctrinate children
  
  Huh, I' expected more awareness from the lemmy community. I'm not the guy to write long explanatory essays, but the message is serious. Just give it a bit of thought, like, what is it that teachers actually do? (hint: It's not teaching, just ask any teacher)
