The former. The latter is definitionally not hypocrisy. It's inconsistency/selective application of reasoning.In post 148, Sando wrote:Do you mean hypocrisy as in "Mathdino wrote:but if you have evidence that hypocrisy more often comes from scum than town, I'll modify my toolbox.you did the same thing as me, it's scummy from you but not from me", or "person A and person B did the same thing, I read person A as scummy and person B as town". There's a town motivation for the first, since they know they're alignment, so yeah they tend to be hypocritical there. But if you think something is scummy, to selectively apply it between two people you ostensibly don't have alignment info about, that doesn't have a town motivation.
Or are you just saying townies are idiots and cause this not to be a useful tell?
But townies are also idiots
