    As an unconcerned bystander I do wonder what you would have to contribute, as it seems you’re mostly trying to hate on users from a few particular instances, without any real substance to it. And it does look like you think you had a real “gotcha!” moment there. Instead you’re just looking like someone with an axe to grind taking it out on random folks.

      And that’s fine! My intial point was that their accusation of something being a whattaboutism was incorrect - everything else was in response to their attempt to insert themselves as a directly aggrieved party when the discussion was about a group in general, never about them specifically.

      I don’t know that it’s particularly unconcerned to insert yourself into this too, but as the bar has been repeatedly set at “insulting me, lying about a lack of understanding in (what I can assume was) an attempt to discredit my argument, demonstrating that lie and then immediately attempting to walk it back when confronted about it” I am genuinely grateful for a polite interlude in the conversation.

        And that’s fine!

        It’s fine that you’re looking like someone who is out to harass others?

        I asked for the contribution you would have made, according to yourself. What was the contribution?

          It’s fine for you to have that interpretation, I mean.

          And I’m sorry, I’m not sure I understand. What contribution are you demanding of me?
