Humans are hypocritical because morality doesn't exist.
>>
>>24679833
how are they hypocritical then?
>>
>>24679836
Appealling to moral standards that don't exist to benefit themselves and control other people. Basically saying one thing and acting in an antithetical way fundamentally.

>>24679842
how would this critique hold any relevance in a morality-free world?
>>
Hypocrisy presupposes morality.
>>
>>24679833
No, everyone has some notion of good or bad but it's relative to the individual so it looks like hypocrisy to someone else

>>24679833


HYPOCRISY IS CONTINGENT TO MORALITY, LIKE SHADOW IS TO LIGHT.

IF THERE WERE NO MORALS, HYPOCRISY WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE, BECAUSE THERE WOULD BE NO STANDARD OF CONDUCT TO WHICH FEIGN ADHERENCE.

LEARN HOW TO THINK.

Well, with Language comes morality, i.e. with the first assent (or negative) given from whatever sign. Will the assenter abide by his word, or will he enter the ass of his communicant, as it were?
Yes, with complex language begins the onset of man's argument with himself that he is no animal, no beast, whether determined or free, etc.
