it's whataboutism
It literally isn't.
It's pointing out that this is the pot calling the kettle black.
Whataboutism would be like "the US uses its media funding apparatus to keep certain ideas out of public consciousness."
Surely you can see how that's a different thing when you engage in the exact type of behaviors you're accusing others of. Surely.
I'm defending my argument that the first comment was indeed whataboutism. Are you confused?
