    I know this is a shit post, but I have wrestled with hypocrisy or more specifically saying one thing but doing something else for a long time. Think of a murderer saying that murder is wrong.

    I think I am comfortable now saying that hypocrisy doesn’t discredit a true statement, even if the person who is saying it may be considered disingenuous.
