9 hours agoI am willing to accept that for myself.
But when it comes to getting others to act, I would rather use ability/agency than responsibility/guilt.
We can figure our whose job/fault it was later.
Right now, we should do what we can to fix things. (EDIT: added “should” for clarity)
My bad, I meant “we do” as in “we should do”, not “we are doing”.
And we can motivate others to do the same by replacing finger-pointing (e.g. “it’s your fault for not voting/voting third party” vs “it’s your fault for not pressuring Democrats into choosing a decent candidate” or something like that, idk) with mutual support and actionable advice (“it doesn’t matter whose fault is it, right now we need all the support we can get. Here’s something you can do”)
