by Anonymous Public safety key performance indicators (KPIs) should reflect a community’s well-being, emphasizing health, safety, and equity. However, many systems prioritize authoritarian metrics, such as ticketing and arrest quotas, which often serve to reinforce oppressive structures rather than enhance actual safety. These fascist indicators fail to measure whether a community is thriving; instead, they promote criminalization, systemic distrust, and economic exploitation, disproportionately impacting marginalized populations. True public safety should focus on KPIs rooted in health and safety outcomes. For instance, reduced emergency room visits due to violence, lower rates of traffic fatalities, increased access to mental health resources, and greater community trust in public institutions provide meaningful measures of well-being. KPIs like improved housing stability, reduction in food insecurity, and increased access to quality education reflect a holistic approach to safety. Overemphasis on punitive indicators fuels corruption, as law enforcement and judicial systems prioritize revenue generation and sadistic dynamics over justice. This approach diverts resources away from preventative measures like public health programs and community investment, perpetuating cycles of harm. A society that values equitable, health-centered KPIs fosters resilience, reduces crime through systemic support, and dismantles authoritarian practices in favor of genuine safety and justice for all.
