Hypocrite People.... Imagine a word full of honesty, a world without deceit, a world deprived off lies. It all sounds wonderful, but beware of what you wish for. How would the advertising business survive in this wonderful world? All the commercials on television and all the billboards are all telling us to buy “Head and Shoulders” because a number of studies have proven that it is the superior shampoo. Studies that were most likely conducted and funded by Head and Shoulders Inc. Everything we see, read and hear is in some form a lie that was formulated specifically for us, the consumers to buy a certain product or service. The advertisers know that they are lying. We the consumers know that they are lying and the advertisers know that we know that they are lying. This is so normal in everyday life that the consumer’s standpoint basically is, that whatever we see on television, read in the paper or hear on the radio is crap. Hypocrisy is a vice that today’s society cannot live without. Society will fall apart as a result of honesty. People will say what they’re thinking and hurt each other in the process. Hypocrisy in the form of white lies is the most common I would say. For example, your wife asks your opinion on her weight. You know that you can’t tell her that she has gained a few pounds or so in the last month, so you tell her that she looks fine and thin. That’s the perfect example of a white lie. Hypocrisy might be acceptable in most circumstances as long as no one gets hurt. Unacceptable behavior signifies the well-being of one on individual at the cost of his/her constituents. One saying goes, When you find yourself on the side of majority… pause and reflect.
