      “Whataboutism” is a term used to feel righteous while completely ignoring your bias.

      Admitting both contries are bad and then taking a clear stance between them is hypocritical at best.

        “Whataboutism” is when you dismiss any bad of any one thing because there are other examples of bad things. In fact, you trying to deflect your bias as my bias is actually also whataboutism.

        If you don’t have any logical excuse for the bad thing, then you should stop standing up for the bad thing.
