    “Let’s criticise everything.”

    I mean there is a difference, and hearing “let’s criticise joe biden” after hearing about russia killing half a million people gets daunting in the long run. It feels like a new form of whataboutism.

    Sure we should criticise all bad things, but I don’t really feel we are not criticising the west, quite the opposite. China, NK, Iran (Russia starts to get some, but not enough IMO) not so much.

    What about Morocco? Mauretania, Kirgizistan or Libya? Or should we only have criticism for modern societies?

    I’m open for discussion of course.
