It is a valid argument. I actually agree with you ( and OP ). The point I am making is that we simply cannot take the blame off the victims either. Unlike plantation slaves they actually do have a choice ( an annoying choice, but a choice nonetheless ). It is hard, if not plain impossible, to move the needle if the general population response is a generalized shrug. They need to get angry. They are not there. So yeah, I am accepting my share of the blame. People in general need to accept theirs. Once that happens, we can go after the actual culprits. Things don't change until we recognize reality for what it is.
