Miguel Espigado<p>ACAB se ha convertido en el slogan de Internet para denunciar el abuso policial. </p><p>Se ve que incluso en el campo subversivo, contestatario, el mundo anglosajón logra imponer su hegemonía cultural, y cada ACAB evoca hoy, sobre todo, las fechorías de las policías estadounidenses. </p><p>Mientras, desde el tercer mundo profundo, surgen otras denuncias del abuso policial extremo, no tan espectaculares como los shorts de las detenciones los ICE pero quizás más representativas de cómo lo sufre la mayor parte de la población mundial. </p><p>Hablo en concreto de “Santosh”, la película de la directora británica-india Sandhya Suri que representa al Reino Unido en los Oscar de 2025, y que ha sido fuertemente censurada en India.</p><p>“Santosh” cuenta la historia de dos mujeres policías que investigan la violación y asesinato de una mujer de la casta baja en una zona rural de India. </p><p>Si damos crédito a esta película, en este país hay sectores de la población para los que no existe la justicia. </p><p>Para los que no se busca esclarecer quién fue el culpable, sino solo encontrar a un chivo expiatorio al que linchar. </p><p>Donde las castas mas altas delinquen con impunidad y a las más bajas se les niega la más básica seguridad jurídica. </p><p>Y donde la policía funciona como una casta privilegiada más, que se regodea pisoteando a aquellos que más necesitarían de su protección. </p><p>“Santosh”, además, muestra cómo las nuevas generaciones son asimiladas para perpetuar un modus operandi policial que parece sacado de la Edad Media. </p><p>Y cómo sus atrocidades se maquillan con renovaciones cosméticas, como la incorporación al cuerpo de mujeres policías. </p><p>Según Reddit, la expresión “ACAB” no se usa en la India. </p><p>Un eslógan que sí es utilizado allí para rechazar la represión policial es: “mera desh, mera samvidhan” (mi país, mi constitución). </p><p>Viéndola he pensado que la India -hoy el país más poblado del mundo- ocupa un lugar casi inexistente en nuestra actualidad internacional sobre DDHH. </p><p><a href="https://masto.es/tags/Cine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Cine</span></a> <a href="https://masto.es/tags/India" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>India</span></a> <a href="https://masto.es/tags/ACAB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ACAB</span></a></p>

That whole MF-ing thread from Mekka.

We believe in a social compact, right?
Well, if one part of that partnership is out to kill me, you can eff my willingness to hold up my part of the social bargain.

That's basically what he's explaining.

And it totally makes sense.

Expect these to become illegal under the #TrumpRegime (if they aren't already)...

Feds Criminalize Aiding #Protests Against #ICE

The #Trump administration is targeting nonviolent acts like identifying masked agents and handing out #PPE in support of LA’s #AntiICE movement.

Akela Lacy
July 23 2025

Excerpt: " 'Roving patrols' operating without reasonable suspicion and denying access to #lawyers violated the Fourth and the Fifth Amendments, the judge wrote. 'What the federal government would have this Court believe — in the face of a mountain of evidence presented in this case — is that none of this is actually happening.'

"Now, those accused of helping the anti-ICE movement are facing prosecution or investigation. Earlier this month, a federal grand jury indicted a man after he handed out #FaceShields to people protesting ICE in Los Angeles two days after President Donald Trump deployed the #NationalGuard.

"#AlejandroOrellana, 29, pleaded not guilty to a charge of conspiracy to aid and abet civil disorders. According to a grand jury indictment, the face shields were 'advertised as designed to protect from chemical splashes and flying debris.'

" 'Alejandro Orellana’s arrest for distributing supplies is an outrageous violation of #CivilRights and should be a wakeup call to people everywhere,' said California attorney Thomas Harvey.

" 'This appears to be a targeted, political attack on resistance to a military incursion on our communities,' Harvey said. 'Distributing supplies to protesters is not a crime. It’s a critical role to help keep people safe — especially in the face of some of the most violent police repression I’ve seen since the #Ferguson uprising.' "
