In reply to the discussion: What good does the constant blaming of voters (or non-voters) do? [View all]ecstatic
(32,843 posts)We've lost rights. History is being erased. The GOP is lawless with impunity. Insurrectionists are still free. It's not clear what direction this country is headed in or if we can stop the creeping fascism.
So yeah, it's easy to turn to the blame game in times like this. I'm sure I've done it as well. People have to channel their anger somewhere. Maybe posting about it is therapeutic and helps relieve some of the tension and anger.
You're right though, the blame game is not helpful or productive, but neither is calling people out on it. Instead of turning on each other, I think it would be more productive for us to figure out a way to regroup, organize and channel our frustrations into something useful. Marching orders. We don't have to wait until next year to get started:
