Lmao it’s literally the name of a logical fallacy. How is the term itself fallacious?
Also I harbour no racism or ill will toward the Chinese people. My girlfriend is Chinese and I care about her a lot and love learning about her culture. I just don’t abide the human rights atrocities committed by any government.

it’s a euphemism for “And You Are Lynching Negroes” - that’s literally what people used to say instead of whataboutism.

It’s not the name of any logical fallacy. You’re thinking of Tu Quoque.

It’s funny how much effort you’re going to debating my word choice instead of the meaning and content of my rebuttal to your stupid comment. Do you have an actual point here? Are you claiming that what you were doing above wasn’t whataboutism? That it’s somehow a valid counterpoint to my joke about CCP censorship to say that the US also does bad things?
