Anyone else old enough to remember when Policemen weren’t ’distressed’ by the word muppet? pic.twitter.com/GRi9R48sYf

It seems that calling someone a muppet has become an act of civil disobedience. This is where we're at.

Anybody old enough to remember when policemen dressed like policemen.
Are we even allowed to call them “policemen”? Probably get tasered for miss gendering. Even using “miss” in that context is an arrestable offence.

And ‘Police Officer’ removes the human element. Perhaps ‘Police Muppet’ should be used from now on 😉
