I have never heard "whataboutism" outside of hackernews and I have never seen it accompanied with an actual argument of _why_ an analogy doesnt apply. Any use of analogy can apparently be dismissed with that one word like its a magic spell.

I see it all the time at work (at a FAAMG company). It's just as silly in that context, and as lacking in supporting evidence.
