Reminds me of bad old days when Ukrainian cops were the worst shit. Like - plant evidence and arrest you worst shit, beat you up in the alley because you look weird shit. You see a cop - you go the opposite side of the street as far as possible because that motherfucker will have a problem with you. And then one day - the government pulled the trigger on the police reform, fired pretty much anyone with any kind of negative rep and replaced them with new recruits and it is almost as if years of fucked up bullshit were all just the bad dream.
I guess Ukraine didn't push enough propaganda on you to convince half your population that cops abusing your rights, and killing people at will, is great for Ukraine!
That's how we do it in America, the GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!®
Our copaganda never really had a chance to get going like that because for the longest time it was either produced by russians or for the russians. Because of that it was never associated with the Ukrainian police. Post-2014 and the police reform cop shows do their thing but the focus is about policemen being regular Joes like everyone else and the subjects of government corruption and especially corrupted judicial system and also loose cannon cops doing more damage than good are regular topics even for the most basic shows. Meanwhile the streaming shows either try to pull off a Columbo or Poirot style detective stories instead of regular cop show format.
See, the big problem in my opinion, is that they didn't convince people that the cops are great. They convinced people that the cops are mostly abusing the people they want to see abused.....
A big problem in that is the obvious and massive societal issue that so many people voted on, and seem to care about, above all else, whether or not the marginalized people they hate are being hurt.
