This sort of whataboutism is hardly helpful. Sure the US is no saint, but trying to equate them to what's happening in Turkey does a huge disservice to everyone suffering in Turkey and only helps whitewash a brutal dictator.

The US is not generally considered in a worse state than Turkey, saying this as a non-American who refuses to visit America.

It doesn't matter what people think, the facts it what matter and if you decide to overlook them that is your problem.
