On: The Undeniable Street View

I see this argument a lot, oftentimes when people are trying to justify Chinese or Russian geopolitics. It’s something like “The US has done so many bad things. ____ is just doing the same thing.” Do you need someone to explain why comparisons like that are effectively useless?

It’s so dishonest and cheap I’m surprised to see it on HN and not on Reddit where it belongs, but here we are.

The account was created to post that comment. Oddly enough similar things happen on Reddit when discussing this topic.
