Fair enough, If your intention was not whataboutism, I would suggest choosing a more refined way to present your point. Currently the comment is structured such that it seems like you are attempting to justify the insurrection on Capitol Hill.

What mental gymnastics led you to this conclusion? It's obvious that the comment was pointing out the double standard and hypocrisy that pervades this discussion.
