    So you’re saying China can commit as many genocides as it likes, it can cage and mutilate minorities at home and veto UN ceasefires abroad, because somewhere else another evil person also exists?

    How about you try opposing both like I did at the start of this thread?

        Saying the rules and consequences should apply equally to everyone is the opposite of whataboutism.

          Yes, but you are literally dropping yourself to their position to swing fists at what is ostensibly an iron mountain. There are far more effective methods. You’re not going to convince them you’re not going to convince anybody that’s reading it and you’re actually hurting your own cause because you come off like a paranoid schizo instead of level-headed. The Chinese guy is rage baiting you and you’re falling for it.

          I would strongly advise you to reconsider how you were approach. Tankies. Head on assaults are not the best.
