No when life gives you lemons, there is no need for whataboutism. Let’s keep pressuring and working to get to training and accountability too.

This comment breaks the site guidelines against calling names in arguments ("whataboutism"). Please don't do that.

Is that actually name-calling? It's a description of a comment (or a argument), not of a person.

I mean, if it is, then so would calling out someone's comment as an ad-hominem, right.
