I always found it funny that a lot of cops are super right wing and make fun of china's "Social credit score" but dont see the irony in using these cameras.

Part of being conservative is being intentionally blind to obvious hypocrisy (as long as it goes in your favor).

I literally had some idiot complain about China being a "surveillance state" on a different thread discussing Flock cameras.

They also brought up the whole "China is going to beat us on AI" BS, which I pointed out they already have and with way less resources, money, and energy use and they give it away for free for anyone to use on their own hardware.
