Whataboutism is a propaganda technique first used by the Soviet Union, in its dealings with the Western world When Cold War criticisms were levelled at the Soviet Union, the response would be "What about..." followed by the naming of an event in the Western world.It represents a case of tu quoque (appeal to hypocrisy),a logical fallacy that attempts to discredit the opponent's position by asserting the opponent's failure to act consistently in accordance with that position, without directly refuting or disproving the opponent's initial argument.
