I addressed this in the third sentence of my comment:
> However the fact that these other bigger issues exist doesn't mean we shouldn't care about or take action on the lesser. If one brings up how we should address issue 'x' and are met with "but what about issue 'y'?" it does give the impression of deflection or of whataboutism.
The point is that we can care about more than one issue at a time.
- freshhawk 6y agoBut if you really cared about "election interference" then attacking media monopolies would be at the top of your list and you wouldn't make this argument. You need to pick things that aren't directly connected if you want to deflect, or your argument comes across as being too obviously in bad faith.
