Hypocrisy Nod: Difference between revisions

{{examples}}

== Anime and Manga ==

* In ''[[Code Geass]] R2'' when Lelouch is confronted by Suzaku about his [[Well-Intentioned Extremist|methods]], Lelouch simply brushes him off stating that he doesn't have time to debate which of them is the bigger hypocrite.

* On ''[[Good Eats]]'', Alton will note when the advice he's giving contradicts something that he's said in a previous episode, and explain the reasons for the change. The most notable example is his [[Running Gag|"stuffing is evil" stance]]; he originally decried stuffing as being a horrible cooking method, and since has multiply clarified his views to mean specifically that stuffing turkeys is a bad idea, while it works quite well with some other foods. And then he did an entire episode devoted to finding a non-evil method of stuffing turkeys.

* On ''[[Star Trek: Enterprise]]'', John Paxton is an extremist who seeks to drive all alien influence from Earth. His idol is a man from Earth's post-[[WW 3]] period who arranged for the mass execution of people who were supposedly genetically-damaged by radiation from the recent war. Paxton himself is suffering from a genetic condition which can only be treated by freely-shared alien medical knowledge, meaning his idol would have had him put to death. He admits that he fails to live up to his own standards.

== Webcomics ==

* ''[[VG Cats]]''

** [http://www.vgcats.com/comics/?strip_id=148 This] strip pokes fun at non-Japanese [[Animesque]] works which overuse anime tropes. Works such as ''[[VG Cats]]'' itself being the implication.

* This is the whole idea behind the the phrase, "Do as I say, not as I do."

* It's something of the general idea of parenting, since parents try to convince their children to not make the same stupid decisions they made.
