    She is right. The cops here in the UK are bullies and they treat the public like crap. Bullied in school became a cop to get power, uses power to bully others. The way they treat people is awful. I work in accommodation for the homless and the diffrece in the way the police talk to me and them, is night and day.

    Thing is, no one want to be friends with a cop or be in a relationship with them… could you imagen breaking up with a cop? Fuxk that! i’d sooner cut a finger off.

      Generally, there are two types of CHUDs:

      1. People who were popular in high school and bullied people, and being a CHUD is how they can relive their glory days as the cool kids forever

      2. People who were bullied by group one, and decided to get their revenge on the world by becoming bullies themselves.

        So well put here. This is a very good explanation. If you don’t mind me asking, is a CHUD an abbreviation of something or is it just a word assigned/given, like Karen or Jock

          CHUD is an acronym for cannibalistic humanoid undergroud dwellers. It’s a reference to movie, but for whatever reason CHUD became the slang term for reactionaries. You’ll every now and then see “hog” used the same way.

      I think this applies everywhere. The power attracts a particular personality type that is less than trustworthy.

        Oh yeah this is definitely the case, but if you know anything about UK playgrounds, you definitely know the type.
