binding anonymous civilian review board that reviews ALL police complaints.

You can't just do one that reviews all.

Like, there is an actual reason bureaucracy and while we keep it around.

One central authority is easily compromised. Every department (city, county, state) needs it's own, with it's own chain of command above it.

A federal oversight program would be great, but there's kind of a big example of why we're better off leaving power with the states.

The Senate isn't fair representation.

The electoral college isn't fair representation.

Even the House isn't fair representation since they froze the number of seats.

I'll never understand why everyone insists on working thru a system that's clearly biased against us. We need to be (and the DNC actively is btw) working on getting state governments Dem. Like, if we legitimately want to fix our electoral system, we don't do that thru the president, we do that thru the states.

We should be fighting against a strong federal government just like Lincoln was when he said they couldn't outlaw slavery nationally as ptesident, nor could he force deportation of Black people out of Free states against the state government's wishes.

The slave states started a civil war, because Lincoln wouldnt use the Federal government against free states. Not because they were afraid he'd use the Fed to outlaw slavery.

Like, we fought and won a civil war over this, but neoliberals apparently roofied everyone, and for 30 years both sides wanted all the power centralized, because that's the easiest to corrupt, and that's what their oligarch donors wanted.
