Ok? The US has invaded more countries than I care to find a list of. These invasions were supported by a majority here and believed to be justified. We invaded countries on the opposite side of the world. Russia invaded their neighbors, basically their extended family, and we're supposed to get involved and support one side or the other? The only reason it's a big issue is because it's pushed my certain political and powerful people. I'm willing to bet 50% of the money "sent to Ukraine" just ends up in the pockets of politicians and leeches here.
Nice whataboutism, but I have the perfect counter: I don't support the US and it's history of invading other countries.
Similarly, I don't support Russia invading Ukraine. I don't gamble so you can continue your "bets", but I'd love to hear how supporting someone who is defending themselves is wrong.
If someone breaks into your home and you fight for your life, I support you in that endeavor.
I'm not y'all, I'm me. And no that was literally whataboutism.
"[What about the fact that] US has invaded more countries than I care to find a list of."
Yeah what about it?
I don't support those invasions and them happening doesn't justify the Russo-Ukrainian invasion. You chose to deflect and then bet about where the money was going, for some reason.
Comparing isn't "deflecting." The fact that you also compared how you also didn't support the US invasions to the Russia invasion kind of proves it was a fair and relevant comparison. YOU should consider calling some things "whataboutism"s is sometimes "deflecting".
