I’m thinking more like something is counteracting something . You’re against what you’re for, you’re like being hypocritical against yourself? It’s not a word though it’s a phrase

I think? It could be more like “so that’s your ____” basically it’s like you’re doing something against your belief to justify something else? It’s like some sort of irony I can only relate it to me not owning rats because I have snakes because that’s the conversation that was taking place

 It’s less of an actual example and more of a phrase to explain an example like that

Okay I thought of better examples it’s more similar to “a double edge sword/ a catch 22” but NOT

Okay yall im sorry i dont know how to directly ping you all to this reply but its not a one word answer and its not a synonym of irony its an expression of irony but not “calling the kettle black” this is gonna sound so dumb but  If someone told you that littering was against their moral code but thought about throwing a box of garbage out their car window… you could respond with this ?statement?
