      I hate that if I point out this is a low-effort comment without phrasing it in this way, people will downvote me because they think I’m disagreeing with it

          I’m not mad at the fact such a phrase exists. It is very low-effort, because anyone can just type four letters on any post about police without further elaboration and gain lots of upvotes. Everyone’s already heard it before hundreds of times. It’s not like it communicates any new information.

          All it does is drown out, dilute, or distract from actual discussions about the problems with the system of policing.

            We all know the problem that is the police, there isn’t anything more the needs to be said, we need governments that are willing to act on it, they won’t - we know this as well.

            If you care so much about “dilution”, why not make a post under the ACAB one that has yes-and energy instead of hater energy? Why not use it as an opportunity to mention the problems you care about?

        Who the fuck cares if a comment is low-effort or high-effort? I don’t care about how much work someone put into a comment, I care about the ideas they are communicating with their comment.

        I really do not care about upvotes. I was more at a loss for words but felt compelled to go beyond an upvote.

        You could make the argument it’s low effort. Sorry if it bothered you. Downvote and move on i guess. Sorry people downvoted you for having an opinion. You have my upvote

          They weren’t downvoted for having an opinion, they were downvoted for having a shitty and pointless opinion that shifts the focus to pedantry. Don’t enable them.
