    I can’t even keep em on topic for 2 comments in a row. On a post making fun of “two things can be bad” as falling for propaganda, someone pointed out the outright nazi shit putin says. Someone comes back with literal “whatabout Ukraine.”

    Does that mean one sides nazism justified another? Or that they actually do think both sides can have negative qualities at once? Hell if I know, when I asked they said that’s a strawman and didn’t even explain what the whataboutism meant.
