Name your hypocrisy

No matter how much we try to walk the walk, talk the talk, there is always something we are a little hypocritical about.

Are you willing to admit yours? If yes, what is it and how do you rationalize it?

I hate drivers that endanger fellow motorists.

When I encounter on behaving particularly badly, typically bigger vehicles [recently a semi, that was fun] severely tailgating tiny cars.

so, I "intervene"... distract them from who they were trying to intimidate... follow them home... that's what the cops told me... follow them. lol

I create a bad situation trying to end a worse one.

I was in that little blue car, hence my animosity... tempered with PTSD

Closet Anarchist Politician. ...anarchy is voluntary society without force of law. ..another word falsely defined by xian dictionary fake writers like Atheism is falsely declared a denial of the alleged bible gawd. ...it is impossible to deny a nothing

Deadbeat dads... social anxiety! Thats something that pisses me off. I can't work there because they don't like me or they're mean to me. Thats when were going to form a fight club and I'm going the whip his ass.

This is a good one.. almost like therapy.. 🙂 Honestly, I have one that I do know would rank here. Now I have been a party animal dam near all my life. But when it comes to the men in my life, I don't like a guy that sits around and drinks everyday, has to drink every time we would go out, etc. But I do still like to party but not every day so ya, it gets on my last nerve any guy that would do that around me a lot. Have had too many friends and loved ones die from alcoholism so I jump on their shit about it.

Not sure it is hypocrisy, but it causes some cognitive dissonance to me.

I am an organ donor.

Yet I am concerned that advances in medical science are potentially weakening (changing?) the gene pool. Conditions which years ago resulted in early deaths and thus preventing breeding and those genes being passed on, are now no longer fatal and weaker genes survive.

The same for organ transplants. If your organs pack up is it genetic? Is it a weakness for the future of momo sapiens?

Will this be the end of humans as we know us?

Yet I am happy for someone to get my organs when I die - I don't agree with Spock that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few!

I am an Atheist , but I still dabble in pantheism , & it's various existential details as hypothetical . This of course also leads to ideas of reincarnation . . . .
I support gun control , but unless no one is to have guns , not going to happen , then pretty much everyone should have guns . In certain nortic nations , it is compulsory for all who serve in the military to carry a firearm with them at all times when they are in public . There , it is compulsory for all who are fit to serve , to serve . The zealots who abuse the 2nd Amendment prevent this from being a practical topic , however , one of the ugliest truths that we will always have to live with , is that if you take guns away from the law abiding , only criminal will have them . It's abhorrent , but I refuse to deny facts .

The United Methodist Church. Saying the Hail Mary when I need a mantra to focus on.

As with several other commentators, it’s the animal food issue. I was a happy focused vegetarian for many years, then two years ago I fell off the wagon. There is just so much killing in the world, and the US is currently engaged in eight undeclared wars, and hundreds of unofficial sorties, and to compound all of that moral quandary, we keep animals in terrible conditions and slaughter them horribly ..... aw, man; hang our heads in shame ...
