It's a whataboutism because you're speculating rather than referring to an existing circumstance.

It's only whataboutism if you say you Can't take down this statue unless you take down all statues.
Asking for a consistent rational for what statues are taken down and what criteria they are judged by is reasonable.
For example in 2010 amid much protest a Nellie Mclung Statue was unveiled in Winnipeg. This is inconsistent with taking this Statue down.
