Quote:It's not whataboutism. I posted that to debunk the hardline and naive stance Tomato seemed to be pushing that we can't let bad people get away with bad things in the world. Would anyone really suggest stopping trade with China because of the Uyghur and Taiwan situations? By trading with China, we are giving them a pass for having concentration camps. The US doesn't seem to care much about those concentration camps. And pointing out Saudi Arabia to Tomato proves the point that the US is AOK with dictators, as long as it's their dictator, so yeah, this is not about 'standing up to a bully' because we're so moral and just. It's about geopoliticsNo, you are engaging in whataboutism. Saying that because we don't solve every evil on earth means we should never stop any evil in the world and is whataboutism as it merely distracts away from the point, And no this is a moral war and a just war and in it we are moral and justified regardless of anything happening elsewhere.
