Editing Police Statism (section)

==Personality==
PolState is portrayed as a stereotypical [[File:Police.png]] police officer. The personality and behavior vary widely. Sometimes they oppress and persecute the people, crush protests and crack down on dissidents, sometimes they genuinely serve and protect the people, maintain order and arrest criminals, and sometimes they're just eating donuts or doing other wacky stuff that's usually associated with the police. May or may not be [[File:Militia.png]] opportunistic and even corrupt, to varying degrees.

An alternative potrayal would be a stereotypical [[File:CounterIntelState.png]] [[File:NeoVChK.png]] [[File:NeoKGB.png]] chekist [[File:FSB.png]] [[File:FBI.png]] [[File:CIA.png]]. Naturally, they are always way more imposing of a presence than the regular police force, however the personality and behavior are still widely variable - from a genuinely good-natured, cool and badass state security/secret service/intelligence agent who does their job well, to an odious totalitarian enforcer and butcher who perpetrates extreme repression and monstrous atrocities.
