    Ok, going back to (direct quote) misterundercoat’s statement that I was originally replying to above,

    If you’re a woman and vote to put any Republican in power in this country, no matter how small or local, you must be insane.

    You’re right. They neither said or implied that anyone else who voted Republican is any less insane or any less to blame.

    I think I just get frustrated when people want to only go as far as labeling a voting behavior or a moral stance as insane, stupid, deluded, evil or just plain dumb… and not dig into the whole system of shit that led to the person or group behaving that way. But there’s plenty of room for both of those angles in this lovely fediverse and I shouldn’t feel any need to police such things.
