      I understand that questioning your liberal worldview can be painful, but thought-terminating clichés like “whataboutism” do a disservice to rational discussion.

      It is not whataboutism to discuss how Trump’s illegal actions are enabled by his predecessors’ illegal actions.

      It is not whataboutism to point out the Biden administration routinely circumvented the Leahy Law in order to continue the genocide in Palestine.
