I’m talking about those youtube videos.

Feels like lowkey copaganda to me.

    Yeah. They definitely are biased towards the cops, probably because that’s where they get most of their information from when writing the scripts.

    I watch them anyways, but with a healthy dose of skepticism. I really wish there was an explicitly anti-cop true crime channel.

    Ironically I usually end up leaving those videos still irritated at police for failing to do even the most basic detective work. But I also used to watch COPS as a kid because even back then I was like “what the fuck are these pigs doing, what a bunch of monsters” but then I later found out that it was supposed to make cops look good? Like really?!? 😆
