    Problem is you’re doing it in defense of conservatives.

    You can say “democrats are bad” when it’s relevant. Your statement isn’t relevant in any way, and that’s what makes it whataboutism.

      But it was relevant. The comment I was replying to was saying “Republicans are bad,” so I just chimed in with “they’re all bad.”

      And I’m not defending anyone. Neocons are just as bad as neolibs. My point is that we shouldn’t be so quick to believe proven liars just because they’re saying things we like to hear.
