No stupid question, but you can get a lot of stupid answers.

The blade holder may be a cast metal and it may break when you try to
straighten it.

You can remove the blade and put the bracket on a hard surface and tap
it back in place using a piece of wood on it and hit the hammer on the
wood.

You can heat it and bend it but you need a lot of heat for that to work,
more than a homeowner typically has.

You may be able to contact the manufacturer and buy a new one. Or ven
pick up a new one at the factory next time you are in China.
