I get your sentiment but I think it's unnecessary whataboutism. This shit show with Israel and Hamas is like fucking poison. It's too easy for people who are otherwise advocating for things that are overwhelmingly positive to discredit themselves if they say the wrong thing about it. A lot of people who have a stake in either party's future are angry and looking for dissent to dump on. I seriously hope that the people we depend on for positive socioeconomic change in Canada don't discredit themselves over this by crossing a red line.
It's not Whataboutism. It's an observation that Doug Ford is morally bankrupt and no one should give a flying fuck what he says unless its, "I reassign and my government with me."
Right or wrong he's a lying, corrupt piece of shit.
There's no question about what he is.
