How come people are more upset about how people protest police brutality and don't care about the actual police brutality that does take place?

@Sweetguy024

There are police who use needless brutality.
There are people who protest it
There are people who are upset about the protests
There are people who think all cops are heroes
There are people who don't care

Although there can be some overlap, these are all separate groups of people.
How come you don't understand that?

(edit) - @2Kal2Human

Because protests are chaos and police represent order. People are afraid of the threat that protests pose to the state. It's a convenient way to take the heat off the state and turn those who speak out against state violence into the "real" villains.

People often defend state oppression until they find themselves the target of it.

It’s an American problem. In most of the western world the police are less brutal but more effective.

Because someone told them that is
If you're not doing anything wrong nothing bad ever will happen to you. And that is just not true.
