Wow. That's the first time anyone has managed to explain whataboutism in a way that makes sense.
For years it's been all "fallacious logic" this and "counter-argument" that. "Reductio", "partial tu quoque", "changing the subject", and a myriad of other things that say lots while describing little.
Thank You.
