I think you mean hypocritical. To answer: no, and even if it was a “yes” it wouldn’t affect the argument I was making. I’ll explain. I was wondering how long it would take for this kind of meta-critique would pop up. Meta critiques are interesting: some people use them as zingers, hoping to dismantle someone else’s entire position. But they almost never accomplish that because they are at a different level of argument: they aren’t engaging with the argument itself. Meta-critiques are more like an argument against the person crafting the argument. In this sense, they function not unlike ad hominem attacks while sneakily remaining fair game. Lastly, even if I was a hypocrite, it wouldn’t necessarily mean that I was wrong — it would simply make me inconsistent in the application of a principle.
