    Definitionally, talking about two causally linked things is not whataboutism. You could argue it’s shifting blame, and I would still disagree, but at least it would be coherent.

      Oh well, since I have something to prove to you and the thread doesn’t speak for itself I will now spend 30 minutes arguing with you about it. Oh wait it’s not 2019 anymore.

        It is a bit academic at this point. I just hoped that liberals contend with the reality that you have to align with your voters, rather than always trying to set blame on the millions that stay politically disaffected.
