I definitely blame the system for allowing all that illegal voter suppression.
And I definitely blame Democrats for being such a shit party and doing such a shitty job.
But I also blame people who didn’t vote, or protest voted. They still enabled what is happening, and commentary on how the Democrats didn’t woo you (not you you, the “you” that is making the argument) to their side is childish. The time to hit hard on making change to allow better options is in between elections, not when the choice is full-on fascism and significantly less fascism.
And those of us still harping on the point is because the no-vote people still don’t think they did anything wrong, and will continue the behavior in the future. And frankly, as small of a chance as there is, we’re more likely to convince those people to vote next time than we are to, currently, convince the government to fill the systemic gaps in or convince the Democrats to… stop being… what they are (though some are making some headway there, which is great! Let the Leftists take over the Dem Party they way the Teabaggers took over the Republican Party!).
I live on an island in Alaska, so my Amazon alternatives are usually Walmart, maybe Target… not a lot of others. If I can buy direct from the company I will, but a lot of times Amazon is the only real option (and no option to buy local).
