One of the biggest ailments these days is whatabout-ism
Someone talks about A - but what about B
Someone talks about B - but what about C
Followed by hatred, canceling the person and general trolling.

I'm very curious about who all these gatekeepers are:
1. To decide every topic of what we should talk about
2. To decide how much to care about a particular topic
3. To jump to assumptions that we speak about one topic means we exclude every other topic we care about.

There are so many things that happen every single day, it is impossible for one person to keep a track of every single thing. If you can do it, well and good. Don't assume everyone else knows what you are talking about.
I have seen zero problems solved by whatabout-isms. ZERO. It achieves nothing, frustrates everyone involved and the issue you are concerned about is forgotten.
