You have some examples of this ?Yet hard working people are struggling to figure out how to buy groceries for their families.

I'm not sure why you guys think you can copy and paste some shit from god knows where and expect anyone to accept it as fact.Here...some free education. It is neither 'made up' (which you use to attempt to imply it to be non-sensical) nor is it a term birthed in reddit.
Whataboutism is a rhetorical, defensive tactic that deflects criticism or accusations by countering with a similar, often unrelated, accusation, frequently starting with "What about...?". It is a distraction (red herring) used to evade responsibility and create false equivalence, often seen in politics, propaganda, and personal arguments.
Key aspects of whataboutism include:
- Purpose: It aims to discredit the accuser by implying they are hypocritical, thereby minimizing the original wrongdoing.
- Logical Fallacy: It is a form of tu quoque (Latin for "you too"), which avoids addressing the merits of the original argument.
- Example: When accused of human rights abuses, a party might respond, "What about the attacks that country conducted last year?" rather than addressing the charge.
You can't negate hypocrisy at all, really.You can’t negate your hypocrisy by calling it whataboutism.

So, your guarantee, how do I go about applying for my refund?I'm not sure why you guys think you can copy and paste some shit from god knows where and expect anyone to accept it as fact.
Here's a fact, I fucking guarantee you were on the other side of this argument when the topic of the billions of dollars worth of military equipment was abandoned in Afghanistan. And I guarantee you didn't do any bitching about John Kerry flying all over the world ostensibly doing something about climate change.
Here's another fact, just because you say you're independent ( a well known and ineffective tactic designed to make people believe you aren't hyper-partisan) that doesn't make it a fact. You have literally walked the party line 100% of the time, without exception here.
How's this ? I'm not a republican. I think the republicans are only slightly less corrupt than the democrats. And I almost exclusively vote republican. But I'm actually independent.![]()
It's even harder when it didn't exist.You can't negate hypocrisy at all, really.
If you would just stop voting 5 - 6 times in one election....I can't imagine what task would have required his in-person attendance that couldn't have been done remotely. Seriously, what job needed his presence that couldn't have been done from Washington?
You are totally correct in branding me as independent. I am socially VERY liberal and fiscally somewhat conservative. No one accurately represents me an when I vote it is for the least distasteful option.
Only republitards do that. Don't believe me? Check the courts (plural) records. Of the tiny number of voting irregularities investigated, I believe 100% or close to 100% were Trump-tards.If you would just stop voting 5 - 6 times in one election....
Well I agree with a lot of this. Especially the overpopulation part, which by the way, most right wingers disagree with.So, your guarantee, how do I go about applying for my refund?
Kerry's climate change stance was stupid. You want to curb CO2 emissions? Stop those fucking useless wars in Ukraine and the Middle East. The CO2 footprint from those are off the fucking charts. Next, well this one will ruffle a few feathers...you need to attack the root of the problem which NO ONE but me (fuck I'm sounding like The-Infant™ now, that's scary!) ever talks about. What is it? Overpopulation. Too many people being born, especially in areas that can't support them. See Africa and Asia to start.
Afghanistan was a fuster cluck from the first boot that hit the ground. The abandonment was just the cherry on top. The fuckup started when the US trained the Taliban to fight the Russians. Lots of blame to go around to every party and administration. And yes, I was saying it then and I'm saying it now in Iran. Money and armaments are being hemorrhaged. Did you ever play Risk? You'd watch two guys fight a war and wait till they were both gassed and then go for the kill. That's exactly what China is doing now. Regan broke the USSR by bankrupting them. Trump's doing that for China right now.
Ok, am I starting to sound like one of you guys now? Chuckle.
You were complaining about him using government resources to go to Italy. Chugging beer on his own time isn’t even relevant. Unless you button talk about all the shit every other government official did on their own time.

If you wanted, you could always lead by example...Too many people being born, especially in areas that can't support them.
Thanks for the info Homo Faggot Captain Kirk.When the best you can respond with is a quip (or a gay slur - hello @Picasso) it's obvious you have exactly - nothing.
Change my mind. Show me some facts. I'm open to learning. I've been wrong before and I'll be wrong again. Make me look stupid.
We were (are?) one and done.If you wanted, you could always lead by example...
Since you feel so strongly
