Who would be the target if that was the case? The stereo-typical right-winger is anti-government and pro-cop. The stereo-typical left-winger is pro-government and anti-cop. So neither would be a good target for anti-gov anti-cop literature.

It'd be awesome if the target was the non-stereo-typical people.

Anti-cop is anti-government. It's the same thing.

Both newer audiences were blinded in several spots and are prevented by group speech to acknowledge some realities. I'm not from the USA, so I see things from a vantage point. I'm not inside the mess.

The book preaches for the identitary leftist movement, historically associated with being oppressed. It capitalizes on the popular notion that police is the cause of their oppression.

The domestication effect narrative induces this audience to think less of the class struggle and more similarly to the right rethoric (less police, less police bureaucracy, less government). They've been long-term blinded. It's so obvious.
