gollark: The difference between complaining about *police* generally as opposed to people of some *race* is that police choose to be police. And probably do have more shared attributes, given that they all do the same job in similar institutions.
gollark: A lot of schooling is kind of terrible in my opinion. You're forced to learn stuff you may not actually care at all about, and often it's more "memorize these random things" than trying to develop actual understanding.
