@frog the non-joke version of my toot was “I feel like a total idiot out here trying to effect positive change with my personal actions when giant systemic forces are negating the positive changes of millions if not billions of people” that’s not whataboutism it’s just an observation that billionaires pairing up with Saudi friggin Arabia exert disproportionate power over life on the planet. And I would therefore be justified in murdering them. |
@jimray Talking of facts, you did. You say: some person talks about bad "A", but listen, bad "B" is much worse. This _is_ #Whataboutism. If you need to know why you should avoid this: in extreme, it would justify murder, because there are other murders. BTW, I follow your arguments in part, but not your conclusion.
