It's even funnier that most the Christians are fervently in favor of the police brutality. I think the word is funnier I'm not sure might be a different word...

Nah. Just for the Americans. We got them churches with ANTIFA graffiti in them. With punks inside. Lothar König (Pfarrer) – Wikipedia https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lothar_K%C3%B6nig_(Pfarrer)
Since this is specific to Germany/DDR the article is in German. There was some arte documentary or so about this, which is why I know of it.
People taught to trust authority without questioning it are very convenient for totalitarian rulers.
I have first hand experience that seeing police brutality doesn't typically change the minds of these people. My parents would literally see a black man being beaten up by a bunch of cops and holding his hand up to protect himself and say "look, he's resisting". They are super sensitive about suggestions that they might have some internalized race hate.
“But they deserved it, and I deserve to go to heaven.”

Strengthen people's feelings and beliefs, instead of reasoning and independent thinking, and it becomes easy to ignore proof or lack thereof.
Christians: Ah you see that person who did a terrible thing isn't really a Christian. Christianity means accepting Christ as your savior. This stops anyone from doing terrible things. The ones who did terrible things and claim to be Christians didn't really let Jesus in there all the way. That would've fixed them.
