    Don’t bother. They’re just trying to distract and redirect by telling us we should be mad at those not directly responsible instead of those directly responsible.

    Like those who said we should blame Democrats when Republicans overturned Roe v Wade.

    Generally speaking, ignore anyone that uses the term “BLUEMAGA”. It’s a term trending with idiots right now.

      You should be mad at both, really, but when it comes to allocating effort, the present threat is the more important one. Whether or to what extent the Dems would do the same doesn’t matter anywhere as much as the things actually happening.

      If by some stroke of fortune an actual progressive party should gather enough support to be more than a spoiler, then they’ll be justified to attack the Dems: “We’re what you should have been.” But outside of that, the focus should rightly be what is happening, not what should have or might have happened.
