Hypocrisy Abounds

Description

Highly unpopular opinion incoming. If you can't handle a simple opinion or are here to be a self-righteous zealot, please leave now. Think before you comment, please.



All too often, those who cry the loudest about bullies turn right around and become bullies themselves. Usually, they'll find a 'bully' and start a witch hunt against them (oftentimes complete with threats of sexual assault, bodily harm, and death)- thereby turning into the very evil they claim to hate so much. It's a fine show of hypocrisy- it's bad to be a bully, but arguably worse to be a bully and a hypocrite.

It's fine to feel passionately about a cause. I get that, and everyone has the right to feel that way. But, it's not fine to step all over everyone else and push others around/force them to bend to your will, no matter how much you feel your cause to be 'moral high ground', 'right', or otherwise. And what's that old saying, 'An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind' or something? Just a thought.
