Do you think Biden should draw criticism for flying people all over the country at night
without fanfare and just dropping them off everywhere without notice?
Is this "whataboutism" based on a Christian perspective?

If so, could you tell me where "whataboutism" is supported by the words of Christ in your religion's scripture?

I don't need to talk to you, you can tell me what I think even when I'm not.

How can your "whataboutism" be proposed as a Christian perspective?

My moral compass tells me that what DeSantis did with those human beings was sheer wickedness. It's the kind of sociopathic behaviour that ought to disqualify him from public office.

Then again, I'm not a Christian, so Christians [like you] might look at their "true north"and disagree.

If Biden had done exactly what DeSantis did last week, or Liz Chaney had, or Lindsey Graham, or Hilary Clinton, or Mitt Romney, or Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, or Mike Pence, Katie Porter, or Kevin McCarthy had treated those humans in that way, or whoever had done it, I'd say the same thing. No "whataboutism" from me.

Why ask me, you know what I know even if I tell you, you are wrong.

Why ask me?

Because I am interested in how you think your "whataboutism" can be framed as a Christian perspective.

If you cared about my perspective you'd listen to me when I gave it to you, instead
of correcting me about it as I tell you. Now you got another insulting term for your
psychobabble "whataboutism" this is just one more example of how you do not give
a rat's ass about other's thoughts, you just want to categorize them into little boxes
for your amusement I suppose.

The term "whataboutism" is not psychobabble. It's a description of the rhetorical device you are using.

What Biden did or didn't do, aside, what is a Christian perspective on what DeSantis did earlier this week? I am interested in your thoughts.

I do. I am interested in your Christian perspective on what DeSantis did to those human beings earlier this week. I don't have one because I am not a Christian. But my moral compass enables me to express an unequivocal view. Doesn't yours enable you to do the same?


@kellyjay said

You cared enough to take the time to falsely claim that the term "whataboutism" is "psychobabble".

"Whataboutism" is the flapping and fluttering sound when someone's "true north" is blowing in wind.


@KellyJay
Flap and flutter.

You have admitted that your moral compass is "broken" repeatedly. And now you have demonstrated that it is, indeed, the case.

You do, apparently, enough anyway - to have posted for 4 pages on this thread - albeit without answering the question: What is your Christian perspective on DeSantis's deed in and of itself?
