A fucking .ml defending a pig murdering a toddler. Holy fucking shit.
You think that petty theft is a crime warranting the death penalty? What in the actual fuck is wrong with you?
The “heavy” use of “quotations” makes me “suspect” sarcasm.
Yeah, and the sarcasm points to skepticism over the mother’s story. Last I checked, sarcastically saying “allegedly” implies that you think it unnecessary, but you’re checking your ass over liability. Meaning that you think that that is what happened.
And sarcastically emphasizing “answers” implies that the mother has some secret game besides holding those responsible for the murder of child accountable.
Like, am I fucking crazy for seeing this as filled with malice and hate for the victim?
No, I got you.
You’re almost reading my comment correctly, only being a bit too emotional. There was no story provided in the post, and no link to an article, so I had to google it. The post was intentionally hiding the details I think, and I just provided some context also using quotes to express some of my thoughts, which made you mad. I don’t condone the police. I think the American police are very dangerous, especially if you confront them and they are almost always not held accountable for their actions. I also think these details provide some context why this happened the way it did. Running away from cops with your child in the car is completely reckless in my opinion. If she didn’t steal anything and had a receipt, even more so.
You’re blaming the mother.
She’s so desperate she had to steal childcare products. Things are going through her head like “the police will use lethal force”, and “who will look after my baby”. Of course she fled. She fled because she’s a human being in an incredibly emotional state trying to care for her children.
Completely understandable that she tried to escape. That’s why police get cars, to chase people who do. It happens a lot.
The cop, on the other hand, was at work and in charge of the situation, but murdered an infant.
By saying “this is the way things are, whether it’s fair or not, we all know the police might kill your kid”, you’re asking us to first accept that. And we absolutely should not.
The post very much provides a link, I even sent a screenshot. I think it’s safe to say most people, including myself, make way too many assumptions.
At any rate, I’ve reported the issue twice more:

Okay. Thanks for clarifying.
Not breaking the law does not protect you here in the US. She was black, she had reason to fear for her life, and as we hopefully all learned from Renee Good, cops literally never have jurisdiction to fire upon a driver in a vehicle. So this was cold blooded murder, no matter how you fucking slice it.
Yeah I guess I can read it that way. “Allegedly” implies “cops are lying” to me, but then “answers” implies “woman is lying”
So actually I have no fucking clue what this person is trying to say.
I do it to. Poe’s Law and/or ASD are real.

You see, you made it too easy to make fun of anybody based on their preferred Internet forum, so now I can say: “Well, someone from .world not knowing how to read very simple context clues attempting to read something they agree with and misunderstanding it to the exact opposite degree.”
Now I could call you stupid, but I’ve been trying to be more positive and patient lately in general so I’ll just tell you; any Marxist will agree that these fascist pigs deserve the worst. This cop literally killed a child, I don’t know how you could see the comment you replied to as pro cop, unless you’re reading too fast or some other disability is hindering your understanding.
Save the internet tribalism stuff for Anti-Reddit sentiment, it’s way more fun to do that over here and I’ve found much success than focusing that smoke on other instances. And just so you know, motherfucker, I barley even know what instance means I’m just going off pure vibes nowadays
I’m shocked that a Marxist would convey such sentiment. Thus the incredulity. .ml is a Marxist instance, thus the emphasis
Yeah, it’s called ASD
But, like, how could you read sarcastically emphasizing “allegedly” and “answers” as anything other than pouring contempt on the victim? I’m genuinely asking, cause it doesn’t make any damn sense to me.
I think the context of not only this website but of Marxist analysis on America is lost on you. I also think you’re just using this as an excuse to shit on Marxism (that you probably haven’t read) and pretending not to understand to paint this person as racist and pro cop even is clearly not the case. I don’t know what asd means but if that causes misunderstanding I’m sorry that you experience that but I think your analysis of the comment is dead wrong.
Idk what they meant by putting answers in quotes but my human brain tells me that the commenter meant that this poor, poor mother wants to know why the fuck her som was shot and there’s no real answer besides “we live in a white supremacist country and these cops will probably face nothing for literally executing a child”. Obviously the mother probably knows that answer, but it will never fix anything.
Idk, I think you’re focusing too hard on the word “answers” in quotes and then attributing that to Marxist/Leninism because you have social disabilities hindering your understanding of typed comments
Autism Spectrum Disorder
The hidden meaning behind sarcasm is already difficult to convey through text alone, and autism makes that challenge tenfold.
Ahh thanks
ASD is Autism, you fuck. Gods, you’ve got Google.
Someone surrounding words with quotes either is for emphasis (if you’re older than 50), to denote someone else’s word choice, to clarify what word you’re talking about (how I’ve been using), or to denote that you’re sarcastically saying those words. The first one makes no sense, I could maybe see the second but again I’m not seeing how it makes sense to read it that way, third makes no sense, and the last option seems to me to pour derision and hate on the victim.
I’m not weaponizing incompetence to make some fucking twisted point, like you claim I am. I see someone using sarcasm to be a dickhead and I’m expressing incredulity about the dickheadedness. Please, for the love of fucking God, explain how I’m supposed to read these quotes in that comment that doesn’t result in that person saying that the cops were justified in killing a kid. Because I want that to be the case, but I literally don’t see how it could be so.
And I am making no point about Marxism. I respect all leftists until they make themselves out to be fuckwads.
I know what it is and I said what I said.
I just don’t think your interpretation is correct.
Because of the context of the first two quotations , it reads to me like they are not supporting this but rather the opposite. I think the last one was probably just a mistake and not a very clear way to convey what they meant which is the typical status quo, because I don’t interpret it as “the victim doesn’t deserve an answer”. I think it’s clear that they meant this way of investigating police violence is all that will happen in this case and that’s unfortunate.
OP can clear it up instantly when they have time, if they will.
lol I hope so. I don’t think they will 😂
I will. I in no way justify the cops and I think it’s a tradegy. I also think the headline was knowingly misleading, hence I thought I’d provide some context. I don’t know all the details and neither do you, so we can only speculate, but IMO she was too reckless and put her child in danger, knowing how dangerous it is to run from cops in America. In no way do I support the American police system. I’m also not a 100 % Marxist if it makes any difference.
Fair enough
lol I do hope I’m right. If I’m not then that person is being racist as fuck
Lol, same man
