People on Tumblr are of course free to comment on anything they like, but the point of taking this screenshot and posting it elsewhere is to show off the original post. I don’t see the point in including some random comment if it’s not particularly witty itself. This one basically just says “I like this”, I don’t see what it adds to the screenshot.
That is the original post, as it appeared on the person who took the screenshot’s dash.
Tumblr posts aren’t like Reddit or Lemmy or Twitter where you have the post and then you go into the comment section underneath it. The post itself is a chain of comments from whoever commented on it by the time that it appears on your timeline. They’re like one of those cursed work emails that gets forwarded and responded to so many times that by the time it’s relevant to you, you could use it to paper one of your walls if you printed it out.
To get rid of the comment, you’d have to go backward up the chain of reblogs until you found a version without that comment on it.
I’m sorry, I don’t follow.

Because I post the posts that show up on my dashboard.
Do you know how much work it takes to go through and find the original posts?
Some of them are ten, twenty links deep. Do I look like I have the time to navigate that many links?
(I don’t).
If I didn’t care what other people thought, why would I be in the comments reading yours right now.
