I think anyone with a working brain has figured out that the police has a side, at least in Brazil. I mean, every time there were demonstrations and walks asking for a fucking military coup and a new military dictatorship, the police would smile and pose for all sorts of photos with the participants.
Before the rabble invaded and broke into the buildings at the Plaza of Three Powers in January 8, 2023, it was like the police was escorting a group of friends. In some of the videos, the rabble would yell "We're on your side!" to the police who finally had to fight them. Of course, the majority of police still identifies with those fucking bozonazis.
May have something to do with the fact that the institution of police was designed from the ground up to be a fascist one.
