internationally?
Absolutely.

The problem is that law enforcement tends to attract people who enjoy the “enforcement” part a little too much.
I don’t think anyone should hold that opinion.
It is not possible to be certain of something like that on a global scale. There is no such thing as a universal human truth that will always be, no matter what society provides the context.
I approve of ACAB in the way it argues that a problem that has become systemic, cannot be fixed by the system itself.
That doesn’t mean good systems do not or cannot exist.
Your final sentence suggests that you’re the type of person who thinks benevolent force does not exist, when in fact examples of it are plentyful.
