I do agree about the kinds of hypocrites and have never thought otherwise. The definition I put forth was Merriam-Websters which I believe is a reliable source for the definition
Hypocrisy : a feigning to be what one is not or to believe what one does not : behavior that contradicts what one claims to believe or feel
I think we can agree MFK doesn't fit the first part of the definition.
As for the second again because MFK is not alluding to it's belief one can not call MFK's actions hypocritical. Unless are calling MFK's rules a belief or it's Logo a belief.
That is unless you can say for a fact that you know everyone in the world automatically associates adding horns and a pointy tail creates the religious symbolism you are referring to.
Now if you could say that, then Neo/Li created the avatar/logo knowing it was or could be perceived as a religious symbol and accidentally created a rule that contradicts his symbol.
But again that would be based on you being able to state Neo's/Li's frame of mind when creating the Logo or the rules.
And that would further have to rely on the rules or the Logo being based on a belief.
Now you mention a much larger definition. If you can provide one then I can be enlightened by seeing how it pertains to this situation. Thus far you have only provided your wider interpretation but provided no definition or source for said wider interpretation
I also noticed you avoided much of what I said which included that you are calling MFK hypocritical for not following a set of rules you yourself aren't respecting.
Everything can be interpreted differently. Anyone can take things out of context. If you don't answer anything else I said, please answer this. Where do we draw the universal line?
