Yanks have get to choose freely between two child-killing parties. The world's most expansive propaganda apparatus tells them that this is the only way you can conceivably do politics and encourages the public to root for their preferred child-killers like if it was a sports team. People are told that their preferred child-killers are going to solve all of the social problems they experience whole simultaneously being the only thing that can stop the other child-killers who would end human civilization if they had the chance (though their child-killing is OK).

Consequently, a sizable part of the yank population enthusiastically support either of the child-killing parties while another sizably part of the population seems disinterested in taking part in pick-your-child-killer politics at all.

Are the yank population, who voted for child-killers, responsible when children gets killed? Yes. But the real culprits are, as always, the bourgeoisie who has set up this system of child-killing.
