Calling almost everyone who says no to you, or uses bad faith rhetoric to manipulate you, a "cop" is excruciatingly stupid IMO.

People make and enforce boundaries with each other all the time and the context and dynamics of conflict are pretty important to sketch out.

A cop is the guy literally getting paid to surveil and threaten and use lethal violence on behalf of the state or maybe another powerful institution. Bad idea to make this definition hazy, the stakes are too high.
