a) You're criticizing HRC.Where did I even begin to suggest such a thing?
b) You're NOT criticizing her because her boobs are way too small, or that she's a bottle blonde, etc. Your criticism regards politics. Thus politics is the context of your criticism. And in many such critical comments, the obvious contextualization is: compared to what?
It's not in the least clear to me why you have such a tenacious, resolute aversion to context, ridiculing and dismissing it with message-board insult slang, "whataboutery". Thus: a lesson in context.
Binaries are the textbook example.
- Can we fully understand what hot means, without understanding cold?
- Can we fully understand what up means, without understanding down?
- etc
In sport it may not matter as much. "He won an Olympic gold medal" indicates he has excelled. Many need not be informed or reminded, gold is better than bronze. BUT !! In politics, the context must be specified. *
Anyone that doubts the significance of context may need to be reminded: doughnut holes are DEFINED by context.
Correct. I do not recall any significant context you introduced. You didn't, thus leaving it to me. You're welcome.Did I proffer any opinion at all on Reagan prior to your mentioning him
PS
Previously issue was made of me implying or mentioning the spectrum on which an issue may lay. The implication was that I was comparing? I was sleep deprived then. A good night's sleep has restored. Identifying its location on the spectrum might seem a comparison, more precisely, identifying what is analogous. I prefer to think of it as akin to ranking. For obvious example, on basis of how many humans he killed, Hitler was worse than my Dad. Such contextualization seems to revile you. Might want to talk with a professional about it.
* SCOTUS recently usurped women's choice. Democrats recognize this as a human rights atrocity. Republicans herald it as the crowning judicial achievement of the 3rd millennium. Please consider upgrading your parochial view of context.
