After a quick google, I found an abolitionist faq. It's no "world of mine". Abolitionism has quite the history, way before I got into it.

Edit: Here's another text to answer your question

What kind of libertarianism? Left, or right-wing?

Your critique is a bit lacking.

No abolitionist wants to replace the justice system with no system of accountability and societal healing. 🙄

That's quite what our justice system does: treat violence with even more violence.

You sound like a child who still believes what they told you in Paw Patrol.

So... do you know any of the history of Somalia and Haiti? How they got into that situation?

Unlike you. You are so smart and enlightened. /s

when we really need cops who can take a moment and think.

Those people are actively filtered out by police.

Strawman. I literally said that "harm can still be done".

You won't be able to recognise the so-called "justice system" or "order" in that hypothetical society, so no: that job won't exist anymore.

Yes, harm can still be done and this future society should and will find ways to prevent and/or heal that harm. Neither of these things are the police's job, so why should we call that hypothetical job like the old system of violence?

Even if you think that those things are done by the police: do you still call a shoe designer/manufacturer a cobbler?
