That was clearly a reply to "Russia is shelling civilians at random as these comments are being written.", it shows that said argument makes no sense as people have been posting stuff while their governments has been bombing civilians in other countries for ages. Considering that I will not agree that it is whataboutism.
- FollowingTheDao 5y agoThank you. I have heard this "whataboutism" defense brought out since I have been protesting all war since 1984. It comes from people who do not want to look inside themselves and it is the thing that makes me focus on working with people on a more personal level on themselves. -- When the great Tao is abandoned, charity and righteousness appear. When intellectualism arises, hypocrisy is close behind. When there is strife in the family unit, people talk about ‘brotherly love’. When the country falls into chaos, politicians talk about ‘patriotism’. -Dao De Ching
