Grammar
A because clause inserted into sentence without a pair of commas enclosing it
I have extracted the following text from a comic forum.
While I do understand, most of manga writer are the very same guy who draw the art, thus no writing lesson or anything. I kinda hoping for them to maybe, pop up in a 1-2 month writing class. Maybe they will learn how to structure your story, so they don't need to use deus ex machina every frickin time.
Now, black and white morality. While I do understand most of manga genre are targeted for kids, but once you've made a political story, then, the deal is off. There are no, I want to destroy the world because I just want to see darkness. Or I want to save the world, because white rukh are good.
Nope. You have to explain why. Every one, every entity, every individual has an agenda. Grey agenda. Humans have flaws and weaknesses. They have wants and needs. No one is pure evil, and no one is pure good. That big bad with the sole reason to destroy the world just because they just want to see darkness is stupid. Go live in a cave. They need a reason. And surprise surprise, even the good one, need a reason.
I'd like to know whether I can insert a "because" clause between a subject and a verb as in the underlined sentence.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Yes, you can do that. But I hope you realize that the whole text is written in poor and incorrect English. Clive

Thank you, Clive, fro your continuing support.
I'm so sorry for my terrible mistake.
My name is not Cleave.
Thank you for your very helpful advice.
I advise you not to get into the habit of using a lot of dashes in your writing. In my opinion, they do not help you to develop.
You can say
eg Tom, because he loved

Some people consider such dashes fine in writing that is not formal.
Few people, in my opinion, consider them a good idea in formal writing.
Dashes are often used by writers who do not think about good sentence structure before beginning to write.
