What logical fallacies would that be
It represents a case of tu quoque (appeal to hypocrisy),[4] 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.

I notice the left has no problem with whataboutisms when a thread is started about Hillary or Obama....but that's different, right?
No it's not different but you're literally using whataboutism to defend other whataboutisms

I believe that is my point. For the left it is perfectly acceptable to use whataboutisms, while looking down their noses and lecturing the right on using whataboutisms.
However, I have no problem with point out other peoples hypocrisy, and if I am being hypocritical, I have no problem with pointing out my hypocrisy.
