    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.

      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 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.
