1. Propaganda released by police or sheriff's departments which present a rosey view of what police work entails.
2. Images of police officers rescuing kittens from trees and fixing children's bicycles.
3. Articles written about "hero" cops who save lives but ignore all of the tazer deaths and corruption in the unit.
4. The group think or gang mentality that is displayed by some members of the police force which asserts that police can do no wrong and are therefore above the laws they are supposed to enforce.

Did you see that copaganda film that showed officers recieving awards for helping elderly people to cross the street?
Yes I did - too bad they didn't get an award for tazering my unarmed brother to death.

A term that stupid and willfully ignorant people on social media invented to make good cops look bad even when they didn't actually do anything bad.
"Copaganda" is a portmanteau of "cop" and "propaganda". May also be used to refer to very short videos of cops arresting people or using force without any additional context.

Cop: Ends up in the news because he saved 2 unconscious people from a fire
Moron: "Look at this fucking copaganda. I mean, are you serious? No cop has ever done anything good in the history of cops. Every single cop executes every black man they see, which is why black people are now extinct. ACAB FUCK 12"
Don't be that moron.

Copaganda usually goes like this: the suspect was acting weird so I threw her to the ground and jumped on her then she tried to grab my gun so I shot her.

Posts and news stories about “good cops” doing good things in order to portray them in a positive light; an attempt to cover up the fact that all cops uphold a corrupt system
“did you see that post about a police officer making a speech about how bad racism is?”
“yeah that’s just copaganda. Little does he know that his job as a police officer upholds racism anyways”

When the news/media shines a positive light on the US police, often after a tragedy.
An example of this is after the 2022 Tusla shooting at a medical facility, the news was quick to say law enforcement got to the situation and made a difference even though the shooter accomplished his goal and offed himself before the police got there.
