Best Answer

Hypocrisy is technically a falseness, professing one belief, policy, or standard while not following it in your own actions.


A hypocrite is someone who has double standands and speaks in duplicity. They say one thing but do another. They tell others to do things that they themselves don't do, or they do things they tell others not to. Basically someone who doesn't practice what they preach is a type of hypocrite. Other forms of hypocrisy can include someone criticising someone for a fault while not considering their own faults. Hypocrisy is the general umbrella term for all of this. Treason can be considered as a form of hypocrisy.
