I would say that djcjr's comment actually is relevant - USA is doing a lot to limit human rights year after year and IMHO is likely to lose its reputation as a haven of democracy. Thus, I'd say it's not whataboutism.
Speaking of human rights - I wish there was a medium that aggregated reports of human rights violations, in a manner as broad as possible (multiple perspectives of many organizations, ability to compare countries, analysis of laws, published court decisions etc).
My impresssion is that we should have as much discussion about human rights in general as possible, raising the cost of changing the wrong public image of those who care about it. It might lead to a situation when it's just too expensive to violate the rights and the cheapest way to improve would be not to apply propaganda, but actually improve. What do you think - is this doable?
