    I have a real problem with inconsistency and hypocrisy.

    I think the term “hypocrite” gets overused, mostly because the standard being followed isn’t always what the label implies.

    If you’re a white supremacist or a simple elitist, then there’s no hypocrisy in doing favors for your white son and fucking over your black student. I don’t think that this lack-of-hypocrisy makes the behavior any more laudable, though.
