Funny part is if it was a guy who voted for Biden in 2020 who regretted voting for him, he'd be a "real person".

So.. whataboutism is your response to some person who may have thought "this facebook guy is See B.S. Nooz"?
Okay. It's possible. However, equally, you'd have leftists on here telling us all it was "Faux News" propaganda and that the guy wasn't really a Biden supporter in the past... and they'd have as much evidence of it as we have here today.
In this case, whataboutism seems to be a barely more mature version of "I'm the rubber, you're the glue!"

How is it a whataboutism? If it was a Biden supporter, @TOP and other MAGAts would have accepted him as a real person.
It's a fact.
They cannot conceive that Trump can do wrong and that some supporters are regretting.
If it begins with "if it were Biden" or "If it were Trump" and then replaces the person in the story with that other person that is always Whataboutism...
Much like a post that begins with "so you are saying" is invariably a strawman, if you start with "if it were <insert opposite party here>" then you are playing the whataboutism game.

And I'm the one that jaded you.
I doubt some liberal or something is going to play a Trump supporter. I want to wash myself just thinking about it.
“I voted for Trump 2 times, Then He Cut My Job”: A Former MAGA Supporter Speaks Out After Losing His Livelihood
After proudly voting for Donald Trump in three consecutive elections, one railroad worker has a heartbreaking…thesarkariform.com
After proudly voting for Donald Trump in three consecutive elections, one railroad worker has a heartbreaking message for fellow Americans: “I regret it.”
In a widely shared Facebook post, a middle-aged man wearing a red “Make America Great Again” hat and dark sunglasses gave a thumbs-up—but the accompanying caption told a different story. He explained that after 21 years working in the railroad industry, he lost his job due to cuts in a government program tied to the Trump administration.
“I voted for Trump 2 times, not anymore since I was let go from my job that he had cut a government program,” the post reads. “I regret it.”
The man, whose identity has not been publicly confirmed, expressed a deep sense of betrayal. For over two decades, he says he worked hard, supported his family, and believed he was voting for a president who would protect working-class Americans. But the result, he says, was being left behind.
“My brothers and sisters, I worked for the railroad for 21 years,” he wrote. “I pray for you that it doesn’t happen to you.”
His words have resonated with many who feel similarly disillusioned. The post quickly spread across social media, where users reacted with sympathy, frustration, and reflection. For some, it served as a painful reminder of how political decisions can upend the lives of everyday Americans who once believed they were doing the right thing.
While the Trump administration often promoted its “America First” agenda as a lifeline for blue-collar workers, critics say it has failed to deliver for many in the labor force. Massive budget cuts, including to infrastructure programs and union-backed industries, have led to thousands of layoffs, especially in traditionally Republican strongholds.
The man’s story echoes that of countless others in post-industrial America. He noted that his wife, leaning on her faith, believes God will help him find another job. Still, he’s realistic about the road ahead.
“It’s going to be hard,” he wrote, “but I’ll find one to support my kids and my wife and my bills.”
The raw honesty of his message struck a nerve. For some, it served as a cautionary tale. For others, it was a reflection of the growing number of working-class families struggling under the weight of policy decisions they once believed would help them.
“He voted with his heart, but now he’s paying with his livelihood,” one Reddit user commented. “That’s the real cost of broken promises.”
Over the years, Trump’s administration has promoted its crackdown on federal spending as a way to root out waste and fraud. However, for many who depended on those programs, the cuts have come without alternatives, safety nets, or transition support. Railroad jobs in particular have been declining due to automation, deregulation, and reduced federal investment.
Supporters of the former president argue that these shifts were necessary to bring efficiency and long-term change. But for people like this former MAGA supporter, the cost feels immediate and deeply personal.
“Walk the right way now,” he urged others. “Don’t make the same mistake I did.”
His story is a reminder that political decisions are not just abstract debates—they affect families, homes, and the ability to put food on the table. Whether or not his message changes minds, it’s clear he’s no longer standing by the man he once supported.
lol.
Whataboutism is a rhetorical tactic where someone deflects criticism or avoids addressing an issue by pointing out a different issue, often implying hypocrisy or inconsistency. The phrase "if Biden did this then you'd be here apoplectic" shifts focus from the current topic to a hypothetical scenario involving Biden, suggesting that the critic's reaction would be different (and more intense) in that case, without directly engaging with the substance of the original issue.
You are absurd coming here with a meme saying whataboutism is a "conservative tactic"...
Translation: ADumbLefty is too stupid to think for himself therefore he parrots dumb MSNBC talking points.
Doesn't think he's a moron. 
What actions?Because of Trump's actions.
It's going to be a very short time for this post to age and look moronic.
Whataboutism. That's all you pitifully uneducated dotards on the left have. Whataboutisms and lies.
