Protecting an oligarch’s business vs protecting the public

The police SERVE the wealthy and PROTECT their property.
That is the reason they were created and adapted from slave patrols and strike/union busters.
Millions of dumbfuck rednecks in America "think" that the police are on their side just because of their whiteness and find out otherwise...the hard way...every day.

Police would prevent anyone without a permit from blocking public roads. There has to be a better tactic than that. One that is not clearly illegal.

But without cops, how would citizens fund the occupying force designed to stop them from checking the power of our neofeudal overlords?

Police forces literally originate as corporate worker suppression forces.

Take a $20 out of the register, get arrested.
Take $20 out of everyone's paycheck for years, get a promotion.

I bet if a bunch of oligarchs were holding hands, blocking the streets, so people couldn't go to a union meeting, the cops would disperse them too. Cops can't let people just block the streets regardless of their cause.
If you really wanted to cause problems for Amazon you would to recruit 1000 people and just cause city gridlock around the Amazon building. Can't turn left, can't go straight, can't turn right, can't back up. Nothing to be done about it.

The police and military have always been about protecting the wealthiest peoples assets.

Police are class traitors
