Rather, let's stick to blaming Thanos, the instigator of it all.
On a side, it always amuses me that for Thanos, the Mind Gem was the last stone to get, even though it was the first stone he had -- and he lent it to Loki to get the other gems, who then promptly lost the Mind Gem to begin with. So from the getgo, it kinda shows that he's not exactly the most rational guy in the universe.
