All Humans are hypocrites. So this would really end up boiling down to something like: Humans can not judge one another (which they always will) and should completely ignore social standards and social morality (which would destroy a society).

Imma sezzz.... Cops speed and pull you over to speed but fundamentally they exist to keep order.
Not all humans are hypocrites. All humans have inconsistency, but there's a difference between being imperfect and having "selective morality," which allows you to justify anything to yourself, even if it grossly contradicts other things you do. Many people who are aware of a hypocrite as such won't take him seriously. Why should they take his morals seriously, when he doesn't take his own morality seriously?
