Wording here is terrible. But in the end so is the message. This is some tanki slop

The cops are workers in the sense that they are disenfranchised from benefiting from the use of their time. To say that they do not create value in the same way a wage worker does befuddles the damning reality of the laborers loss in benefiting from the value they have created.

Cops absolutely create value to a capital society. Just not to the working class. But they damn sure don't benefit from the value they have created.

Also, fuck the police.
