I won't give too many details because this internet interaction is deeply unserious, but I made a YouTube comment taking a jab at Trump, and someone responded to me with "Oh, yeah, but Biden's not any better about this, now is he?" smuglord

I said nothing about Biden. The YouTube video had nothing to do with Biden and all about Trump. Funnily enough, I agree with the user's comment because it's correct, but he feels inclined to state it under the assumption that I don't agree with it.

I'm somewhat shocked because I thought that, at this point, especially with Joe Biden being constantly criticized by the left for condoning genocide, people would stop using this tired, old WHATABOUTISM, but I guess YouTube comments have a very fucking low bar for this kind of shit.

Also, this person called Biden left-wing in his comment, so.............................

    I wish they could follow the natural conclusion that a criticism of Biden is also a criticism of everything to the right of Biden as well. If I'm anti war, I'm not going to support a different war monger, I'm going to hate everyone who is pro war.

    I guess liberals wouldn't be liberals if they had consistency in their beliefs. They also think they have a monopoly on being "left wing" and when you point out that they are more right wing than trump on a couple of issues, suddenly you're a Russian Chinese bot
