And they absolutely hate ever doing anything about bicycle theft in particular.

I have heard that very often. I wonder if bikes are harder to track down than other property for some reason.

They only care about property loss when it involves rich people.

Which proves that cops really DO actually do their jobs.

Because protecting the property of the rich is the exact core purpose of policing.

Technically it’s maintaining social order. So get back to work menials or be reported to the Enforcers for organized discontent.

Maintaining social order, especially in the form of violent repression against demonstrations, indirectly protects the rich's properties, so all in a day's work.
