Was the Union army complicit in the crimes of the Confederacy by simply allowing them to drop their arms and walk away as well? The world is complicated and full of nuanced takes depending on context. That said:

>If a rival political party takes power in 2029 and they decide to do nothing about this, are they complicit?

Like this really does read as: I still blame the Democrats for the crimes of the Republicans.

The ultimate authority here is the US voters and they have chosen poorly again and again. They are complicit for sure as they chose both to empower Republicans and tie the hands of the Democrats with impossible standards.
