"but other people do bad things" is not an excuse, it's just deflection

I hardly see how in that context I was using it as an excuse (you mean an excuse for China, right?). If anything, I am saying the opposite: the US can't use China as an excuse, because it has a history of also doing pretty bad things.

In other words, I was answering to what I was understanding as: "Oh it's okay we invaded Irak, because China had Tiananmen".
