Arguably then, shouldn’t China be ahead of them in line for Uighur camps, and the US for the Japanese camps?

It's possible to have multiple trials occurring simultaneously. Also whataboutism is not at all helpful to the discussion at hand.

Of course it is, so long as you don’t lazily reduce it to whataboutism. The point is that this isn’t grounds for Nuremberg-style trials, because if it was, nearly every major nation is gonna have to go through it. Like it or not, they probably won’t go along with that idea, so it’s a non-starter.
You see, whataboutism is really only worth calling out in super low risk environments, because the potential future consequences are irrelevant. When we’re talking about putting the world powers on trial, the future consequences are now worth considering. Get off reddit, it’s poisoning your ability to reason.

Has China exterminated hungry kids yet? Israel will definitley earn the first prize and will be handed a gold medal at atrocities, you should be proud of your country.
Unfortunately the Israeli lobby has so much money and power they would silence anyone who says that publicly by accusing them of being antisemitic.
