Since the second quote in that block wasn't made towards TIE, clearly we're not seeing the same conversation. Erik_P posted... Nazis want to eliminate entire groups of people. They stand for nothing but hate and evil...Nazis are responsible for the deaths of 6 million people or did you forget that? TheCyborgNinja posted... Yeah, and that is inexcusable. Is anyone here saying it isn't? ...They're all their own brand of villain. The only people who can't see it belong to one extreme or the other. Erik_P posted... SJWs didn't get in a car and run down 20 people last week, killing one. It would appear that Cyborg actually addresses and denounces the Nazis, essentially calling people on both sides blind fools, and suggests that just because one group is worse doesn't make the other group less bad or even necessarily less damaging depending on the factors at play. Whataboutism is, at it's core, used to dismiss criticism by using a form of red herring. If you acknowledge and, god forbid, AGREE with the criticism, your reply fails to meet the minimum requirements. If you don't, and instead try to point to an external party's faults to divert from the criticisms leveled towards you, you do. In this context, Cyborg would be criticizing both parties.
