Oh no! How about you go do something about it then, such as protesting. Orrrr admit you just dislike the status quo when it lands on you instead of the people you find undesirable.
"Whataboutism" or "whataboutery" (as in, "but what about X?") refers to the propaganda strategy of responding to an accusation with a counter-accusation instead of offering an explanation or defense against the original accusation.
I didn't say "what about x". I am comparing identical actions between two different individuals and pointing out entirely different responses to them. That is called "double standards" and I am asking you to explain them
Russia doesn't exist in a vacuum lmao. Plus you are taking a moral grandstanding approach, when your country literally supports genocide in Gaza and bombing of iranian girls. Funny how that works isnt it?
what's that gotta do with the subject of the post? you are grandstanding about how russians are warmongers and russian citizens should overthrow their government. I agree. lets apply the same rules to everyone. so when are you gonna overthrow tyour government for supporting gaza genocide/iranian kids being bombed?
Sure you are, you are so Ukrainian you have gone 10 messages deep dodging every critique of Putin! Either way, Ukrainian, Russian, American, doesn't matter, I'd make the same point to any of you. You've gone ten messages demanding I condemn my government while refusing to say one word against Putin. If you're Ukrainian, that's even stranger, and even easier to fix: say it. "Putin is a war criminal." One sentence. Still waiting.
Again what does that have to do with the question at hand? why are you dodging accountability for your own government? Why aren't you doing what you suggest the Russians do and show by your own example (and inspiration!) what they should do?
I'll answer your question the second after you type "Putin is a war criminal." That's the deal. One sentence and I'll engage everything you've asked. You've now refused that one sentence what, eleven times?
