Fixated on Blame

<p>What is the role of <i>blame</i> in our analysis of what's happening with the Afghanistan withdrawal? In today's episode, Chris makes the case that we are fixated on blame, and while its comforting and satisfying, it is also reductive and destructive.</p><p>'Get Them Out' and 'Fix It' should be the sole focus.</p><p>This applies to the the Afghanistan withdrawal but also to the pandemic.</p><p><strong>Also up to bat</strong>: Chris' take on this emerging demographic as a new voting block: Vaccinated vs Unvaccinated. That is the new constituency politicians should be talking to. </p><p><strong>Cuom'ote of the Day:</strong> "There is an 'us' and a 'them', but it is not the one that is pitched to you by the media and by politicians. It's not red/blue. It is reasonable and unreasonable, as evidenced in vaccinated and unvaccinated."</p>
