ACAB
Alphabetical index — ACAB
Ah got it. Unfortunately makes me think of 88 so I probably won’t adopt it.
I think of it as "taking number substitution back", or 20-14-19-2. We can't let fascists, Nazis, and general scum bags ruin everything.
I'm still trying to take "libertarian" back.
I want 👌 back to meaning OK!
Counteroffer: it continues to mean asshole in Italy and now also the rest of the world.
Well, it can continue to mean that there but it used to mean ok here. Now the only 2 groups that can use it here are scuba divers(while diving) and white supremacists. I am neither.
I get that but I am not particularly attached to number substitution as social messaging personally lol like no disrespect to yall who want to use it, I just live in the south and the dog whistles are endless. Misinterpretation can get weird here too.
No disrespect perceived, you're fine. It may be a Southern thing too - my wife is from the South and she also associates it with the seemingly endless dog whistles of her life there.
Yeah it’s one of those weird little social land mines we deal with every day. You say a particular string of words or some reference, suddenly somebody you just met is talking to you about pizzagate or the gay agenda or something. There are too many secret codes down here that make people suddenly think you are “one of them.”
Yep my immediate thought too
Yeah I'm with you. Just say ACAB. No sense in obscuring it further than the acronym already does.

Ave, Caesar!
Obligatory: end qualified immunity. Let them get "malpractice insurance".
