Whataboutism exists to show fucks like you contradictions in your beliefs, not to excuse what is happening. Opposition is so strong in any capitalist country nowadays, isn’t it? Freedom of speech is universal right, until couple of journalists say something too “freespeachy”. Sure, making people to vote between two indistinguishable candidates is fine, but when one guy wins throughout the years - FREEDOM IS LOST, AUTHORITARIANISM IS ON THE RISE. Play pretend game of thinking that these two are so different, that one can be called democracy and other is fascistic dystopia is really funny.
AND OF COURSE THERE IS A FUCKING NAZI SLOGAN IN THE FLAIR, HOW VERY DEMOCRATIC.
Just once I’d like to get an actual response from one of the libs who say that all russians deserve to be discriminated against, ostracized from the international community, and even bombed because they aren’t doing anything to stop their obviously evil government from committing war what that means for Americans after Iraq and Afghanistan.
So far it’s a 100% succes rate of “whataboutism”
