MODERATORS
Those that chose not to vote are absolutely responsible for this.
You're not going to wriggle out of culpability.
I did vote, so let's dispense with that false self-righteousness at the top.
Sure lots of people didn't vote, but that happens in every election. There were more votes than ever before, so this election actually had FEWER non-voters than ever before.
They contributed, but they are not fully RESPONSIBLE for it. The Biden administration let MAGA run wild, instead of declaring it a domestic terrorist operation, and a serious national security threat, and rounded up ALL of their treasonous leaders, including propagandists like Rupert Murdoch and Steve Bannon, and sending them to Gitmo for extensive interrogation.
The Biden administration allowed them to work their election fraud strategies in the wide open, as we saw it all happening before our eyes. They even admitted to it over and over as it was going on, and the Biden administration did less than nothing to combat it. That was far more destructive than FEWER non-voters than any previous election.
You can't allow MAGA to steal the election, and then blame ourselves for their crimes.
That's a lot of words to say that you don't know how to hold people accountable.
Blaming the fewest number of non-voters in history instead of the worst election fraud in history is lazy thinking.
If you worked in bank, and you knew you had employees who were openly stealing from your bank, would you ignore the theft, and instead blame the customers who aren't putting enough money in the bank to stay ahead of the embezzlement? "Gee, if we only had more people putting money in the bank, maybe it wouldn't make any difference how much my dishonest employees steal. It's the fault of our non-customers who refuse to be part of our openly corrupt system that our bank is failing, not the thieves."
That's exactly how Dems have treated the biggest election fraud in American history, yet I'M not holding people accountable?
