"What about"-ism is on the rise..

It is wise to improve our own self and not use others weakness as justification for our own.

Loss of reputation causes disastrous impacts one or the other and watching our own politics is similar to watching a self destructive person justifying their own actions.

It’s not whataboutism, it’s calling out when the pot calls the kettle black.
