A New York City police union called the Sergeants Benevolent Association is using a new video to troll its workers into believing that “racism” against police officers (a job) is even more prevalent than racism against black and non-black people of color (an identity).

They tend to see an even broader stereotype through an even more racist lens. When they look at me, they see blue.” “Blue” being a reference to the costumes they take on and off. Poor them.

The video also includes an eye-roll worthy MLK jr. quote to further justify their offensive false equivalency:
