Nothing is Anybody’s Fault
American Thinker.com ^ | December 5, 2021 | Clarice Feldman

Some time ago, P.J. O’Rourke was both prescient and witty when he observed:

"Liberals have invented whole college majors -- psychology, sociology and women's studies -- to prove that nothing is anybody's fault."

This week we have more evidence that nothing is anybody’s fault although the reasons for that may include even more than those P.J. named. Narcissistic celebrities, mendacious media and politicians, and blinkered prosecutors and Soros-funded district attorneys like Milwaukee County’s John Chisolm and San Francisco’s Chesa Boudin are also part of the mix. Stupid voters aren’t off the hook in my estimation either.

The Media Blame Shifting

For years the media played megaphone to the FBI’s lying finaglers on RussiaGate. As the story is now dead except to Andrew Weissman and the gullible few who fell for it, the media says it wasn’t their fault they published lies nonstop. You must read all of Lee Smith’s wonderful summary of the MSM mendacity on this score.

He’s right on the factual recitation and his conclusion is inarguable:

They have been teaching this since the 70s. “Not your fault, you are just the victim of an oppressive society and culture”.

For years the media trashed Trump, regurgitating the FBI’s lying finaglers WRT vengeful Hillary’s faked Russian dossier.

Just some of the stupid, gullible Democraps who fell for the ruse to help get Bidung elected. The media says it wasn’t their fault they published lies nonstop.

Just as the USSR had a constitution that to the casual reader read like the American Constitution...mere paper to fool the gullible and provide insider humor to the apparatchiks.

I’m still amazed that the Democrats and their media accomplices could pull off such a huge and obvious con as Russiagate ... and face no consequences.

Nothing is ‘their’ fault if they can find someone or some group to blame. 90% of what they do is call themselves victims while pointing their bony fingers at anyone they can name as a villain.

To the Left’s hive mind everything is always the fault of those who do not join.

“Nothing is anybody’s fault.”

Not so. It’s the fault of carbon emissions, climate deniers, the Russians, and white supremacists.

“Nothing is anybody’s fault.”I date this in a political sense to Clinton perjurying himself and being excused for it to protect the Party. In the broader sense, individual guilt has been eliminated by calling drug addiction and many social problems victim based, rather than personal bad choices.

Blame is reserved for old ideas and dead people.
