My point is precisely that this isn’t a court of equals. We are all constantly threatened by the US, either directly or through a proxy.

With guns pointed at us the US makes claims, usually to undermine any efforts to resist the threat.

Appealing to hypocrisy is an attempt to shift the blame to evade an argument.

Obama's decisions in Africa do not justify anyone hacking SolarWinds.

Most parents won't allow their children to get away with passing the blame like this, let alone a court of law.

Again, the point isn't the hypocrisy itself but rather the unfairness of the "court". The US gets to constantly blame countries it oppresses of various things without consequence, to the point where it hardly even matters whether what they say is even true.

Hypocrisy is merely a symptom.
