Whataboutism is basically their go to. Their mind doesn’t understand people actually being capable of critical thinking and being able to criticize both things, they just project their own personality cult belief system.
For a better lemmy experience, remember to block lemmy.ml , lemmygrad, and hexbear.net . On mbin, use URL spec /d/<domain_name> and block. Or since that doesn’t seem to work, just block their communities whenever they pop-up.
Moved on to the better fediverse platform, mbin, avoid lemmy instances: https://github.com/jointhefediverse-net/jointhefediverse.net/blob/main/README.md (scroll to bottom)

There’s a very possible line of events leading to the expansion of already present US bases in Greenland expanding and coordinating with private interests to exploit its natural resources. The US doesn’t want Greenland, they want their resources. He would be quite capable of stopping financial aid to Greenland related to those bases while refusing to move troops out to egg a response, and then using that response to justify even more forceful measures.
Trump literally got into a heated exchange with the Danish representative. https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-had-horrendous-call-danish-193412504.html He is quite serious, because he’s all into the sort of government that could shift into the Project 2025 dictatorship he wants, and that’s imperialism. He’s setting up the ground for the fake outrage that will fuel actions that would otherwise be indefensible. They will still be indefensible, but doing it overtime allows him to prune his critics from any position of influence.
Then don’t, it’s basically stochastically emergent, no genius required.
This follows a pattern of Trump trying to undermine the concept of the European Union without directly going after the European Union. This sort of statement sounds like bullshit to the sort of people who don’t need to realize it’s bullshit, but unfortunately it captivates and allures the attention of bigots everywhere who until now had to remain to keep to themselves in our societies. It follows the larger trend of radicalizing and creating cults of useful idiots, and the US under Trump will likely be used as a platform to attempt to drive it into Europe to attempt to dismantle the EU as he continue to shift to more imperialistic and militaristic approach to world politics.
Take your whataboutistic absolutes somewhere else, there are uncensored models and the fact that there is potentially heavy censorship behind the major ones to serve political interests is not a good thing.
