I haven’t read a lot of these sources myself yet, but the first one at least by the Communist Party of India is worth a read.

    “Whataboutism” as a claim can be abused a lot to avoid criticism of the other evil that is being referenced, but there is no reason to believe that’s the case on an anarchist forum where you would be very hard pressed to find anyone who isn’t also extremely opposed to the US and other western empires. Given the demographics of a site like this, it’s also likely that most of their activism is targeted toward them as well. There is no reason that criticism of a potential evil has to wait for a larger evil to be toppled.

    You’re not actually making a point here, just hurling insults.

      More like I explained how concern trolling is done, by using whataboutism claims. If you want such academic discussions, first consider that you need a utopian world to do so, not the kind of world that exists today.

      The current world has a lot of bias and brainwashed masses, the bias being in favour of the Western neoliberal warmongering hegemony.
