Whattaboutism don't vindicate the US.

Also, the US is still occupying Puerto Rico, Hawai'i, Virgin Islands, France has the Guyana in South America, you only care when white people get fucked, you sleazy piece of racist.

Calling whataboutism is a logical fallacy used to justify having a different set of standards for oneself and ones adversaries. It's not a serious argument. The west has positioned itself as having some sort of a high ground while doing the same and worse that it accuses Russia of doing. This isn't about vindicating anything, it's about having a consistent set of morals.
