Covid Took My Grandfather. But It Wasn’t What Killed Him

Yes, she's right that her grandfather was 'sacrificed' for political gain.

By her.

I understand she is grieving but this is a confused mess trying to find something to blame. Trump. Voters. Capitalism.

Whatever might make her feel like her loved one's death wasn't entirely in vain. Whatever might stick. Whatever she wants an excuse to be more angry about.

She needs polite condolences and time. She doesn't need people indulging in this nonsense and encouraging her.

All those things are to blame, though.

If you share her political views, you probably share her bogeymen too.

Anyone who thinks capitalism is a cause of our societal woes should really look into materialism, its philosophical foundation.
