ABSTRACT
Strawsonians think of blame as a civilized response to uptake-capable wrongdoers, which seems to suggest that blame should be civil and cooperative. This chapter denies that blame should be ‘civil’ in the standard sense, meaning temperate, polite, and convention-abiding, and it also denies that blame should aim for cooperation and consensus. Instead, blame should promote intersectional feminist aims, which sometimes requires going against conventional norms and refusing to cooperate with ignorant people in conditions of asymmetrical uptake.
