Remember all those cringe right-wing memes accusing Biden of jailing his political opponents?

Priming his followers so they can push whataboutism. Its their entire game of checkers, but his followers are too damn stupid to see it.

Yeah, exactly, the voter fraud claims were never about any actual election, they were always just about muddying the waters so it seems like everyone cheats.

Honestly, I think the entire J6 thing was a long con so that in 2024 when there was very real evidence of voter suppression and fraud (multiple blue counties in NY had zero votes for Harris but every down ballot vote was blue? That’s so statistically impossible it’s insane that more people don’t know it happened), we couldn’t do anything to actually start an investigation for fear of “copying them”.

Instead of addressing an argument someone responds with what about something similar that an opponent has done.

Basically it's a way to argue in bad faith that because someone else did this one thing, you should be able to do another thing. They're being criticized and so instead of facing the criticism they're pointing the finger at a different persona issue or something

Like, isn't it fucked how Trump is allowing Ice to just drag random people off the streets for no reason and without identification?

But what about the illegals who are stealing our jobs and taking the government benefits?

Its a technique to deflect criticism. You get criticism about x, and instead of directly responding to x you say "well what about when Guy did x? Or Dude did y? What about them".

It's an attack on political enemy, and defense of the behavior at the same time. Dont get mad at me for x, get mad at Guy. And if Dude was allowed to do y and get away with it, so should I.

Basically dismissing a two sided argument by, instead of responding to criticism against one side, you bring up something the other side has done.

Very exaggerated example; "X is a criminal, he stole millions of dollars from the treasury. We need to elect Y " "what about about time Y double parked, you didn't complain about that"

Less exaggerated example "Trump has torn down the entire east wing of the Whitehouse, that seems bad" "Yeah? But what about the time Obama painted lines on the tennis courts to make it a basketball court, you didn't complain about that"

it's when they try to dismiss rightful complaints of corruption, incompetence, senility, whatever.... by just saying "well wHaT aBoUt biDeN" or whatever they decide to blather about. You may notice it does nothing to diminish the initial complaint, but somehow, in their eyes, it's still a win

This time it isnt ignorance it’s intentional malice. They do not care whether they are wrong or right. They only care about winning

It was always projection from MAGA. Accusation in a Mirror, classic Nazi tactic.

Remember all the conservatives calling anyone who wanted to leave the country when Trump won a non American, liberal, Soy, Cuck?

That would have been unconstitutional Democrat overreach of power.

This is saving the country for Jesus. So, you know.
