this type of lazy between the ears thinking is making this worse for everyone; please consider stopping.
Shouting “whataboutism” every time someone brings up context isn’t lazy?
You can judge governments against perfection, you can judge them against the governments they replaced, or you can judge them against peer governments. The two realistic options involve comparisons, and those types of comparisons happen to be a key component of what passes for international law, too.
Fascinating that you decided my comment was worthy of being called out for being lazy, yet the comment that does not engage with the discussion, instead discarding it as “whataboutism” gets no such scrutiny from you. It seems as though your issue isn’t truly “lazy thinking” but instead wether or not I support your worldview.
I will stop as soon as the gut-reaction to context isn’t to regurgitate an old thought-terminating psyop.
