That does not say Hippocrates. His oath was something different entirely. Hypocrites are interesting
, but less interesting than say, liars. A hypocrite is like a liar, but different in the worst possible way. Hypocrites are easier to spot than liars because their hypocrisy is visible in their actions, not in the words they use. So: you can see a hypocrite from across the room, you do not even need to get close enough to hear them speak.
Hypocrites tend towards self-righteousness. The problem is, with them, that they say one thing and do another while they imagine no-one is looking. That in itself is perhaps excusable, but the fact that they subsequently try to hide the reality of their actions from themselves when confronted by their shadows demonstrates an inherent weakness of character in every single hypocrite. That is not a character-assassination of a type of person, that is a fact.
I am fairly certain that when the bullshit castles fall from the sky there will be some tension in The Houses of Hypocrites. The unfortunate thing for those living in bullshit castles is that their foundations are weak. Not the castles’ foundations, their foundations. When faced with the reality of this tragedy you will notice the hypocrites start squeaking. That is when to smile, for that is when they realise that their destructive criticism is what has pulled their sky-castles down. That is also when to deflect their energies, and reform their deformed idea of a social ideal.
