Alright new atrocity from Israel just dropped, who should we blame:
- ~~The fascists running Israel~~
- ~~the fascists running the US~~
- ~~the democratic party who teed up the atrocity~~
- a couple hundred leftists on lemmy who didn't vote

They mean people who didn't campaign for Harris hard enough. It's the obvious next step from "if you didn't vote for Harris you voted for Trump"; "if you didn't actively campaign for Harris you actively campaigned for Trump".

lemmy people who actively campaigned for trump

All of the above, plus:
- Reddit for turning their platform into a partisan shithole
- Elon Musk, Sundar Pichai and Mark Zuckerberg for allowing right wing propaganda and disinformation to proliferate on their platforms.
- Joe Rogan for political bias (inviting Donald Trump and not Kamala Harris onto his podcast)
