Every side is capable and guilty of corruption. You do know this, right? You do know the Democrats aren't innocent angels, right? One just got arrested for murdering a journalist in Las Vegas and another got arrested for fraud in California. Everyone is guilty here. We are being bent over and railroaded by these people. Me and you. The politicians aren't our friends. | |||

"Whataboutism" is a real thing, but since most people are idiots it's now invoked any time somebody literally just says "what about" and then points out another thing, which is perfectly legitimate to ask when somebody is purporting to care about some principle being violated, while ignoring the same principle being violated but *way worse* than the initial example.
Like when people bemoan historic american slavery that doesn't even exist anymore, and then you go "What about all the slavery that still exists right now at this very moment? Shouldn't you be focusing your efforts on stopping that first??" and they go "That's whataboutism!!!". It's like, no, it's not, I just used the words "what about" so your dumb lizard brain went straight to the first buzzword that came to mind. | ||
