I don't know what the background to this whole thread is but your contribution to it just seems like "whataboutism" so I'm going to stick up for Claire on this particular point.
I don't know if she's right in the broader context, and granted, she does seem to have a bee in her bonnet about you from the outset (I have no context about any of the people involved) but you can surely come up with something better than "but then why aren't doing something about this other thing"
