This is textbook whataboutism

  That starts with nosianu's post a few levels up, not here, don't you agree? My response is trying to poke a hole in what Glawen said to deflect.

    Not quite sure about where we ended up here, but just to clarify, just in case. I don't think it is whataboutism when it is relevant. I think it should have been considered in the initial argument, the one I replied to, to begin with. The "genocide of its white population and confiscation of their property and land." - from the comment I replied to - was preceded by terrible atrocities by the people then in power against those who revolted (also see the comment from ambrozk). I think that is relevant to the discussion. Whataboutism brings in stuff that is not relevant and unrelated, to distract. I think I'm still right inside the same topic, one leading to the other.
