T2 said ACAB and ill always appreciate it for that

They don't have to stay that way. In a few years we could fix the system so that there's accountability and cops have the option to be good.
-
Itll take a lot more than that.
-
Sure sure, it's theoretically possible to create a future where the cops don't behave like they always have since they were created centuries ago. Yeah maybe you could do that. I don't think you're going to get it done in a few years, but maybe in a few decades, but don't cross your fingers.

Police exist to protect capital, not us.
-
Nope. They need to be abolished

Budnick knows that cops are no ones friend and definitely didnt show up to help.
-
The other cool thing about this movie is how Robert Patrick had to slow down in the scene he runs chasing John on a motorcycle. Dude runs faster than a bike, and the director didn't think people would believe a robot catching it.
-
Can anyone explain the reference?
-
It's a scene from Terminator 2. The cop here is a terminator, sent back in time to kill John Connor to prevent him from forming and leading the human resistance. The kid here is John's best friend, who was with him not 5 minutes prior. This is the kid's response to the cop showing a picture of John Connor and asking about him.
-
The thing that's great about it is that if you send your mind back to 19-whatever, you're part of a culture that knows Schwarzenegger's character as a terminator and largely respects cops. You think this boy has endangered John Connor. It's not until quite a bit into the film that you realize your assumptions have bamboozled you. My favorite part is when he looks at a silver mannequin briefly in the mall; it's a detail that can only be understood on subsequent views. (Though I have to assume the god awful trailer industry ruined this experience for actual audiences at the time. Sure the writers loved that.)

The cop here is a terminator
Aren’t they all?
-
Wasn't he John's bully, not his friend?I thought the big thing about this scene wasn't just that the kid lied to the T-1000 posing as a police officer but that he lied on behalf of his own enemy. Edit: have been confirmed that I am mistaken -
Every request for context should receive a response as thorough, accurate, and concise as this one.

The entire human race? Not exactly. As shown in the series' next installments, most of mankind still gets wiped out by the machines. Lying to the cop just keeps John Connor alive so the survivors can mount a meaningful resistance.
-
Yeah but it keeps members the species alive and free from the tyranny of the machines so, like, that's still a thing. Like how a few breeding pairs can 'save' a species on the brink of extinction
-
No doubt, I just felt that the wording was a little misleading.

that guy is so awesome. I got my name on one of his knobs for backing him on patreon for a little while, I think it was the 1000 oscillator setup
-
K that's actually several varieties of cool

I'm willing to to forgive a few Anawanna awful waffles in exchange for protecting our entire future timeline.

Bless this Comrade!

Maybe “reflexively” more than “instinctually”, since it’s more cultural than biological.
