I was talking about the issue with Porter, not defunding the police. Maybe that was unclear.

I don't dispute that most people weren't on board with defunding the police because they were essentially hearing the idea for the first time, out of context, heard it refracted through hostile sources, and were unfamiliar with all the ideological underpinnings of the idea. You'd see a similar pattern with any radical idea.

Well no I haven't seen anyone talk about Katie Porter outside of Twitter or whatever. It's not nearly as bad as Defund the Police.

And Defund the Police should never have been the framing to begin with. An inaccurate 3 word slogan is indefensible. In the context of getting refracted by the right wing, you may as well be giving them a tennis ball and a 3 foot high basketball net
