The common interpretation-maps I am used to would claim that *regular*
frequenting of nubileboys.com, combined with being vocal against it,
would constitute hypocrisy.
These are simplistic; it is quite possible someone could be
psychologically addicted to the items on the site, and STILL abhor
them. Certainly I am in such a bind with respect to several of the
Eastern Orthodox vices.
Now, being vocal against nubileboys.com without knowing its categories of
content would be outright ignorance, which is only good at keeping the
ignorant, ignorant. It's surprising how many "The truth on..." booklets
depend on this principle. Most of these are vehemently religious, for
some religion.
