To put it in even smaller words for you: my point isn't that Russia isn't doing anything wrong, my point is all the western powers are guilty of the same crimes yet Russia is being spun as being uniquely evil for it
That is true, it can come off as whataboutism when talking about how we are equally (if not worse) as bad as Putin.

Shocking you could meet two unrelated people with viewpoints different from your own, I know.
To put it in even smaller words for you: my point isn't that Russia isn't doing anything wrong, my point is all the western powers are guilty of the same crimes yet Russia is being spun as being uniquely evil for it because it benefits said western powers to frame it as such, and relaxing censorship on images of horrific civilian death is an effective tool to perpetuate that false narrative.
