Whataboutism is such a cursed term, literally invented by some Irish journalist (originally called it “whataboutery”) who supported the British during the Troubles, and had to make up a term to keep himself from constantly getting owned by everybody around him when he’d bitch about what the IRA was doing, and they’d point out what the Brits were doing that caused the escalation, or that made his demonizations seem trivial in comparison.
‘whataboutism’ LMAO i literally havent heard an original critique from liberals for at least two years at this point
