Off My Chest
RULES:
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

Americans haven't been sitting around letting it happen. Not all, anyways. If you do not blame Russians for Putin, then it is pure hypocrisy to blame US citizens. Period.
I don't think the people taking your stance actually understand how poor and uneducated most US citizens are. The majority of people have been one paycheck away from homelessness for years. Even before Trump. The US likes to talk a big game, but it is nothing like the GDP would suggest for most Americans...
Again, if you don't blame Russians, yet do blame the US, you're simply being an ignorant hypocrite.
You completely misunderstood me.
Everything I said is to say precisely that I don't blame the average American. I mean, I even talked about people generally, not Russians after the first sentence, and specifically said that I don't care for blame generally...
