Hypocrisy equals self delusion or cognitive dissonace?
I once called a whole country's pariament hypocritical ... and feared being gaoled for contempt. Fortunately a UN Human Rights Judge also agreed and they would have had to gaol her also.

I do not like discrimination against anyone, however I notice that I tend to ignore and not engage in conversation with anyone that I consider to have low intellect.

Never.

I am going to grow more as a person I guess. I can't think of right now

Still keep Pascal's 'get out of hell free card' in my back pocket.

I consider myself a Marxist at heart yet I am just as addicted to material possessions as the bourgeois. I complain when the price of gas goes up a nickel despite knowing, deep inside, that it takes exploiting 1/3 of the world's natural resources to keep prices as low as they are. I bought my daughter an IPhone for her birthday despite the fact that it was made with slave labor in order to make it affordable to me. . . the list is endless.

FUN QUESTION. Thanks for posting.

Just coming off a run of health issues which sidelined me for the last ten years or so. After about the last 4 I have developed my health to the point that I'm active again, going to the gym, etc. I've been trying to balance having energy and feeling healthy again without spazzing out at every example of unhealthy behavior I encounter in myself or others, since not that long ago I was most definitely on the other side of the equation. Good to remember that whatever we think we see in others, we never see the whole story.
