Apparently not for those who will ever blame others for their own actions. I have yet to see a Liberal/Progressive/Marxist take personal responsibility for the failings of the philosophies they force upon others, nor for the reaction to that coercion.
Because for the collectivist, the murdered victims were the obstacle that stood in the way and not to be viewed as fellow human beings with families and lives. The endless dead were obstructions! Had they not been such barriers to progress, it could have worked! Their monstrous ideology views its victims the way spousal abusers view theirs. “If she hadn’t opened her mouth I wouldn’t have done it.”
Denial of accountability is deeply integral to collectivism.
