This is where you are wrong. You aren't commenting on the article.. You aren't even commenting on the post about the article. Your responding to a comment left on the post about the article.
It's you that's arguing in bad faith here, or at least not recognising the context of what you're saying, presumably because you're too busy trying to get across your own point.
I don't think your initial point about the criticism that should be levelled at Amazon is wrong (I think you'd be hard-pressed to find anyone on here that supports what Amazon have done), but that isn't to say that the Foo Fighters shouldn't be being criticised here.
Both things can be true.
But by responding to a comment that points out the band's faults with whatabouttery you're kind of coming across like you're defending the band whilst also ignoring all the other people saying the same thing you are. Then on top of that having a go at the OP when he points out other people are talking about the Amazon issue by saying you're clearly taking about the article.... If you're commenting on the article why are you replying to some other post?!
