It's most often a fallacy used for covert victim-blaming. Like "ok he beat up his wife but she's annoying".

Or "ok israel is bad but what about hamas"

Crazy how the US can sponsor the bombing of UNRWA relief workers, then spin about and complain that Hamas isn't letting aid in.

I see your point. But in this case the US and China in conflict and it wouldn't really make sense to characterize either of them as a victim in relation to the other
