I hate the term whataboutism
It's OK to point out hypocrisy. In fact, I think it should be forefront on everyone's mind when your government is criticizing some other government for things they do themselves
In the case of one government criticizing another it’s definitely fair to point out hypocrisy. The problem is that in most cases it’s used to avoid discussion on a topic by changing the subject of the debate.
That said, it is also fair to say that the first comment kind of shoehorned in the caste system on a topic that had nothing to do with it.
