lathi card

Forcing other(s) to be consistent with what the other's said, either/both to attack the opponent(s) and/or evading allegation(s)

Also known as: tu quoque fallacy

Originated from traditional Javanese proverb: ajining dhiri ana ing lathi /ɑ•dʒee•neeng deer•ee o•no ing la•ti/ (your words determine your self esteem)

If you playing the Lathi card, you're losing the argument and no one can save you, not even yourself

Remember: two wrongs ain't make no right/two wrongs don't make a right
