    Whataboutism is when you hold two governments to the same standard.

    If capitalist bootlickers didn’t have double standards, they wouldn’t have any standards at all.

      Whataboutism is when you ignore a criticism of one party and instead say that another party is worse in some way, in order to distract from the original discussion. Hexbear users apparently love this underhanded tactic.

        See that’s the fundamental mistake you libs make. You project your childlike black and white worldview onto people with a broader understanding, like the christians who think that atheists hate god.
