It's probably C.O.P., short for capitalist oligarchic pig
- Citizen Oppression Patrol
- i really want this to be the correct etymological origin of the word cop
  
  I have heard it's because their badges were copper and got shortened to cop. I have no proof.
I'm afraid I can't help you, but thr reason the answer is wrong is because Pig isn't a job, it's a calling.
- I honestly feel bad calling cops pigs. Pigs can be sweet and useful animals.

RIP Andre Braughter the only person who could humanize a cop twice over

And only him because otherwise I don't care

Anyone know what the circles mean when they’re like this in a crossword?
- means it's part of a clue. in this case it's 6 above's clue which is "Approximate shape of this puzzle's white squares... and a synonym of the circled letters"
  
  Oh ok thanks. When I did this puzzle I finished it before the vertical clues so I never saw that I guess.
Which crossword game is this?
- Looks like NYT crossword in dark mode

- an inferior one to the godly Guardian Cryptic Crossword
- NYT Mini
