No no, you don't understand. America bad, therefore anything against America is automatically good. It doesn't matter who it is or what they do.

Ah yes, the Noem Chomsky. Famously when he was defending Pol Pot's regime.
... or to hide their own imperialism.
I think people should separate
A) ideal world they want
B) what has to be done now to survive because everyone is an asshole
The US is the biggest source of imperialism in the world. We don't have to always follow that up with "butwhatabout" to distract from that, which is what the US media machine does by running stories all the time to manufacture consent for its own imperialism.
Someone had their Chomsky-o’s for breakfast this morning.
Whataboutusm is a russian invention and is 9 times out of ten usad to excuse russia agressions.

I'd say that Russia is the biggest source of suffering caused by imperialism in the world right now ( just going by the death toll of the Ukraine war ) . Is saying that a 'distraction' from American imperialism?
Gaza is happening because of US imperialism. Biden said that's what Israel does in the region very clearly.
Gaza absolutely dwarfs Ukraine in terms of suffering caused by imperialism.
Honestly, this is why I increasingly believe that people who say things like the OP don't actually believe American Imperialism is bad, they're just doing whataboutism to defend it.
