TOTW: ACAB Means Who?

I recently came across a video mocking online Leftist positions. Many of them were funny, such as "Can we not yell at the outdoor demo, it may lead to sensory overload" or "theory is ableist." Yet there was one I was shocked to hear: "Therapists are included in ACAB." Again, this was mockery, so of course, OP meant he disagreed with that statement. The top comment was "But, therapists are included in ACAB?" and subsequent replies disagreed with or mocked the commenter. One comment said, "No, but psychiatrists are def in ACAB" and explained how all the therapists they knew were progressive and anti-capitalist. Ignoring that many anti-capitalist, progressive people can be Coppish as fuck, I want to explore this issue a bit.
