A better way to look at it is that tech companies were quietly siding with Trump before the election and pushed a massive amount of disinformation on social media to heavily influence the election in favor of their guy.
This might sound wrong in the context of this current week, and downturn in the stock market, but I’ll bet money that every major corporate C-suite has had a presentation on how much they stand to profit long term from Mango Mussolini. They are about to get their wildest wet dream: company towns free from regulation, and all the tax breaks they could ever imagine.
That is putting a whole lot of responsibility on a people who never actually had control over government and elections, and it ignores the blatent media manipulation and information war that’s been waged against U.S. citizens for decades.
you don’t need to control the government or elections to disallow the election. I am not taking any blame from the media, either. I am just being a bit pedantic about the term “allow”. for comparison, when someone accuses me of leaving the lights on, I point out that they left them on too, as did the neighbors, police, and president.
when something is undone, it’s because no one did it. everyone didn’t do it.

this doesn’t change the fact that no one stopped it. this entails that everyone allowed it (some even encouraged it, as you pointed out).
