I don't recognize the need to identify the people to blame. There are multiple parties with various degrees of culpability. Yes, the primary blame lies with people who orchestrated the exploitation. But blame also lies with those who fell for such and obvious grift, and those who didn't vote, and those who voted third party out of protest.

Concentrating all blame on one party without nuance is exactly the tribalist nonsense that powers fascism.
