But the question was, is she a hypocrite for taking the money.. And obviously the majority said no.. I'd imagine that this is because most people did make a distinction between choosing to not contribute and choosing to steal. They are two different things to me, so to me, in this example alone, she is not a hypocrite.

There is an argument for both sides, to make a thread and not acknowledge theories which contradict your own is childish.

We can't really verify the accuracy of the poll, for example, i voted 5 times saying chloe was a hypocrite. If a few fans each voted 100 times saying she wasn't it would soon skew the result.

The bottom line is that hard line Chloe fans won't care less what she does, and if there are enough of them she will win. Morality and or hypocrisy wont enter into it.

Id imagine your 4 votes and their 99 got excluded but i agree, the poll could easily be inaccurate. Although the source of the website alone is probably the most reliable place to get a definitive answer, so if it doesn't convince us to swing the other way, nothing else will.
