Defund is a bad word for the stated goal.
It’s a worse word for the PR aspects.

Too ambiguous, as reform can and will be interpreted to mean any number of things

So, we are back to you agreeing that this is a complex issue with limited use for mislabeled hashtags. Good. Now go reform the police

It's really simple - if you have to explain it over and over and over - it's a weak slogan. Period. If the other side can rally around YOUR slogan
