    Take the word "overseer, " like a sample
    Repeat it very quickly in a crew for example
    Overseer
    Overseer
    Overseer
    Overseer
    Officer, Officer, Officer, Officer!
    Yeah, officer from overseer
    You need a little clarity?
    Check the similarity!
    The overseer rode around the plantation
    The officer is off patrolling all the nation
    The overseer could stop you what you're doing
    The officer will pull you over just when he's pursuing
    The overseer had the right to get ill
    And if you fought back, the overseer had the right to kill
    The officer has the right to arrest
    And if you fight back they put a hole in your chest!

    i also like the point in the movie "Soylent Green" where the cop says their only job is to protect the rich from the poor.

    I never saw this film but I just watched the trailer. How strange to hear "In the year 2022..." 😊 Your point about police being here to protect the wealthy is spot on and that clip you shared concerning slavery really puts it into the proper context.

    if every movie and television show that was over twenty years old was FREELY AVAILABLE (in the public domain), then there would be a lot fewer new movies and shows and they would be much higher quality (because they'd be forced to compete with the all-time greats)

    I remember a line from Lisa in The Simpsons where she says something along the lines of the police's job is maintaining the status quo for the rich and the elite.
