Most if not all of their arguments are based in emotion, so it makes it really easy to want to latch onto things like whataboutism, and they use it as a tool often because they have to - our tool is logic, which they dont have. If they didnt have whataboutism to latch onto, they would be forced to look into what Trump wanted to look into, and they fear that something is actually there. They dont want anything to be there, but they fear that it is...
Yeah exactly. I don't even remember what it was exactly but I know I was giving him some fact about Hunter Biden laptop and he started getting loud with me and was like ' that's all you republicans do, go on and on with the whataboutisms'
I was like, well what would be a good resolution to the situation then? At that point he was just so pissed off at me he couldn't even talk to me anymore. He was all red in the face too. Over me presenting a fact that the laptop and pictures exist.
Then he started going on about how trump has the blood of millions of Americans on his hands. I think he said 5 million people or something like that.
They really all do use the same bulshit phrasing dont they? My lefty coworker just said 'whataboutism' to me yesterday.
