Toxic Advocacy: Whataboutisms

Advocacy Pro-Tip: When confronted with someone’s horrible, shitty, no-good, very bad, utterly indefensible, repugnant, smelly, abusive, garbage behavior, responding with “what about so-and-so who is worse…” you are engaging in de facto apologism. If your morality is based on “so-and-so is worse” it isn’t morality. You are in a cult. I’m scared of you and I’m afraid for you.

Fuck off with that mess. Thanks team!
