co-opt/enlist state and municipal police Explanation: I think "coptar" must be a borrowing of English 'co-opt'. co-opt /kōˈäpt/ verb verb: coopt appoint to membership of a committee or other body by invitation of the existing members. "the committee may co-opt additional members for special purposes" divert to or use in a role different from the usual or original one. "social scientists were co-opted to work with the development agencies" adopt (an idea or policy) for one's own use. "the green parties have had most of their ideas co-opted by bigger parties" Definitions from Oxford Languages |
