    I thought blaming everyone but themselves was a conservative thing. People need to accept they voted for this, and need to do better next time (or now. Do better now).

      Hmm, I thought shifting blames on minorities like Palestinians or Latinos was a conservative thing! ;) I do suspect this is agitprop like with tankies.

      There are reasons for the outcome, found in how the rules of the system is set up and the emergent effects and resulting outcomes. These are not that unpredictable in hindsight. Fundamentally, how can you have a democracy without a good news media? (also you need prosperity and peace). So fascism is the natural outcome.

      So I don’t blame people really, it’s more like the math didn’t pan out.

        Look on the bright side. Your republican government has learned what works, and will never change and has even grown emboldened. And apparently the democrats didn’t learn anything either. The math is only going to get worse. Your government gets to do whatever it wants to the Palestinians or Latinos.
