If there is any single issue that stifles actual discussion or debate in US politics, it is Whataboutism. There will always be some other issue to distract from what's at hand. BLM + "but all lives matter!" = whataboutism. Biden eliminates some student debt + "but Israel" = whataboutism. It is one of the best ways to keep the pot stirring without allowing anyone to taste the soup.

I dunno. Why haven't you overthrown the government to pardon him yourself? Why do you have Ed Snowden? Why do you hate THE TRUTH?
