Whataboutism exists to show fucks like you contradictions in your beliefs, not to excuse what is happening. Opposition is so strong in any capitalist country nowadays, isn’t it? Freedom of speech is universal right, until couple of journalists say something too “freespeachy”. Sure, making people to vote between two indistinguishable candidates is fine, but when one guy wins throughout the years - FREEDOM IS LOST, AUTHORITARIANISM IS ON THE RISE. Play pretend game of thinking that these two are so different, that one can be called democracy and other is fascistic dystopia is really funny.

AND OF COURSE THERE IS A FUCKING NAZI SLOGAN IN THE FLAIR, HOW VERY DEMOCRATIC.

Exactly. This is the real problem with calling out whataboutism. People like us actually understand what whataboutism means, we’re not stupid. We’re calling it out against liberals because they don’t see the hypocrisy of their system.

Ah, fair point, but you used the word “liberals” in the classical political sense, and not to describe exclusively supporters of the Democratic Party as a reb-blooded American would do. This can only mean that you are a Russian bot programmed to spread misinformation, as there is not such a thing as organic, differing workframes if these can be used to oppose the hegemony of the USA. I shall now proceed to discard your statement.

It was not so hard to detect it. After all, there are only 3 types of people on the internet:

  1. People who defend and uphold the hegemony of the white and civilized West
  2. Russian bots
  3. Paid Chinese trolls
