How is it whataboutism if the US bans importing goods made with slave labour if they themselves make use of it? That is just hypocriticism on the US’ side.
It doesn’t take attention away in this case. If the US is like, “hey, don’t use slavery in your factories”, it’s a massive hypocritical statement. Especially considering the 13th amendment allows slavery for criminal convictions.
It’s a clear point of stating, “bro, WTF you gettin’ on my ass about slavery when you’re using it right fucking now!”

The part where you go “whatabout” and then draw attention away from what the discussion is about.

What?
They’re both in the wrong, the US and China.
No, no you’re right. China has a right to have slaves and hide it. We’ll all stop asking about it now.
