I appreciated the well thought out response but your still painting the same tired picture. My sides right and yours wrong. Look at how you talk about the true whatabotism being a thing liberals do instead of it being a logical mistake all humans can make.
Both sides do it. When liberals bring it up it's because they're tired of Fox Entertainment distracting from very real crimes Trump committed. If Hunter is a criminal, lock him up too.
Anyway, you all keep enjoying your projections and circle jerks. I'm out for real this time because you're the first honest response I have had and frankly the rest of you are to caught in your own echo chamber to hear anything but GOP propaganda.
Days late to this but the point I was making a point from our perspective, that's why I talked about the russian-ukraine war. And frankly a lot of people (including me) is really tired of liberals using 'whataboutism' or 'logic fallacy' to incorrectly shut down a conversation. I agree communists can incorrectly post information regarding certain topics, however thats far from even a minority. But liberals do base their entire personality, and ideology on denying logic.
The other point why people bring hunter biden is that he's clearly done stuff that a poor, or minority person would be locked up for decades. Yet he escapes crime simply because he's born into a wealthy family, and is a president's son. He's literally a fortunate son. People seem to forgotten there's evidence of him snorting cocaine, and having sex with prostitutes, all illegal under US law, and people have died from these laws, which biden has voted in, and put into place. We're also tired of democrats support and funding fascists, and then turning around to us, the majority, to bail out their mistake, they literally count on our better judgement, and morals to bail out their shitty, money-grabbing ones. This is not how a democracy works.
Shame, at least do think about this information for a while, and reflect on why we think this way. Or you can ignore, either way.
I hear you.
I think the term whatsboutism got coined because of how Fox Entertainment uses it. Mention Trump and then say something like well what about Hunter. It's a way to distract and spread propaganda.
Liberals do it too.
I don't identify as liberal or conservative. I grew up working class and support strong unions. Which neither the GOP or Democrats do. They're both the party of the rich, as you eluded to in your post.
One wants total power and the other wants to keep the status quo with the corporate elite. I want to seize the means of production and hold all of these assholes accountable.
Musk and Bezos, Trump and Hunter too.
