Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

That's how it works in communities that don't trust cops, too. Our old folks (our village elders) keep an eye on things and make sure we stay safe all across the world. I mean if you ask me, its something we should lean into and embrace. Fuck a neighborhood watch association. We don't need to snitch to cops. We already can keep our neighborhoods safe without them
Neighbors who want to keep the community safe are great. Nosy neighbors are a whole different bag
And now that more of our grannies are living longer, they’re losing their minds and seeing things that aren’t there, if they even remember they saw them.
My trust in police is generally low because they fail to address the actual crime sometimes, but it's not that low to depend on people snitching my every move when I'm out and about.
I mean, if Google and other large data collectors would disappear overnight, the advertisers could simply ask these people anything about me, and get a reliable amount of data (half /s).
