whataboutism 

When you deflect criticism by pointing out flaws in your opponent, specifically using the phrase "what about x?" This is an attempt to excuse you from changing you behavior by painting your opponent as a hypocrite.

Dad: Son, you haven't cleaned your room in two years. Please clean it up.

Son: Why are you always telling me to clean my room? What about YOUR room? Or what about your relation with mom? Shouldn't YOU be the one cleaning up your life?
Dad: Quit your whataboutism and clean your damn room. I'm tired of seeing that dead rat over there in the corner.

Whataboutjanuarysixthism 

(Noun) A specific type of whataboutism (logical fallacy) that is used in response from woke and left-leaning users on Twitter any time something trends that makes woke politics look bad. Usually includes pictures of the events from the US Capitol riot on January 6th, 2021.

Anytime they don't like the way the conversation is going, they immediately defer to whataboutjanuarysixthism so they don't have to respond to the issue at hand.

Whataboutism 

The technique of refusing to address a criticism and instead making a counter accusation often unrelated to the original statement. This technique may have attained its most popular usage in late Cold War Russia, but has been used in many different situations and many different places. Deflection, evasion, false balance, and ad hominem are related if not integral techniques.

Whataboutism in 1983:

Person 1: "Don't you feel that Brezhnev oppressed the people of eastern Europe?"
Person 2: "Well, what did the British empire do to its subjects?"

2003:
Person 1: "Do you really believe the second invasion of Iraq was justified?"
Person 2: "What about Mobutu? What about the things he's done?"

2023:
Person 1: "Don't you think that Trump's attempt to overturn the election was harmful to democracy?"
Person 2: "But what do you have to say about Hunter Biden's laptop?"
