Re-upping this again: I wish more lefties could internalize the idea that hypocrisy is not a meaningful accusation to the right. Of course they're being hypocrites. That you are bound, by rules, standards, logic, human decency, some fundamental moral consistency, anything at all, and they are not? That is their conception of what power is, and why they seek it. So they can exercise power, without constraint, and you cannot.
That's the whole point.
Hypocrisy is the virtue-signaling of fascism.
Keep in mind that for so many ideas of justice and fairness (as they see it) and revenge overcome complaints of hypocrisy.
Hypocrisy isn't the point for these people; it's still a downside, but one they're willing to accept for the goal of (to distill it to one point) revenge.
