yeah, no. whataboutism is not a real thing. it's just some stupid propagandistic term some dumb asshole made up and pulled out of his asshole to get stupid people to avoid seeking truth. it's a very effective tool, because: people are mostly very stupid.
Whataboutism was the entire explanation of the Iraq War, once the WMD BS was laughed out of the room.

It's real. It's a diversion tactic.  

It's extremely common.

I'm not. Sorry, I am ashamed to admit it. I'll try to tone it down.
The thing is, you can't seem to mention any world leaders without a blast of profane epithets, except Putin and Trump.

It's one thing to dislike some world leader, fine with me, the barrage of epithets seems, to me, both unbalanced and puerile, and also dilutive of effect due to overuse.  Many of "us" might post "that poor excuse for a President X" once or twice, fine, but the constant "f-ing dopehead incompetent senile s-head Macron" is in my view counterproductive and not conducive to intelligent discourse, if indeed, such a thing can exist.

Truth Social owner Trump Media to begin trading under DJT ticker (cnbc.com)

If ever there was a modern example of Dutch tulip bulbs .... this looks like one to me.  Perhaps that means it's a great investment bound to explode upwards, but I think not.

Hopefully, the scam artists get taken in this one, and the deep pockets who may be propping it up to help DJT get fleeced, but they probably expect and can afford it.

This is a unique way to funnel money from A to B, from what I can discern.

Stetson Bennett update: Rams QB, who missed all of his rookie season, set to participate in offseason workouts - CBSSports.com

They really managed to keep this story submerged, I'm surprised.  I think most believe it's alcohol related.  I don't feel some need to "know", and wish other "celebrities" could somehow get needed treatment without all the pub, but we know that rarely happens.

Hopefully, he's OK, of course.  At times, on TV, he could come across as rather arrogant and might not be the most pleasant of teammates, I don't know.    Maybe he learned something?  On physical talent alone, you might not view him as an NFl QB.

Unreal. Bridges need to better fortified, like the new(ish) Sunshine Bridge over Tampa Bay.

Do you remember that collapse? Holy crap...

I'm reading a book (again) by John Sanford.  The main character is one Letty Davenport, and she carries one.  They cost about $2500 apparently.  I was idly curious as to how they were "better" than say a Sig, or even a Taurus.  I guess it's a bit like a car, a Honda will get you there.
