Someone who condemns a thing but does that exact thing themselves. E.g. someone who comments on an Instagram post "Attention seeking behaviour" implying that such behaviour is to be frowned upon, but in so commenting they have invited attention. Such folks might then get into massive long flame threads if picked up on this, inviting yet more attention. In the end they may have scored more attention than the OP.
A: "Attention seeking behaviour"
B: "Dude, you're such a hypocrite"
A: "I'm not a hypocrite, you creep"
B: "Are so - you telling me you posted that comment hoping *nobody* would notice? Hypocrite."

English word derived from Greek roots, skia- meaning dark, shadows, machos meaning fighting. Thus, variously it means to fight shadows, fighting an unseen enemy, shadowboxing, a flurry of inexplicable movement like a fit (imagine someone fighting an invisible foe), and from that latter meaning, absurdity. It's also my online nick that I use pretty well everywhere, picked semi-randomly from my big old dictionary :-)
This war on terror is pure sciamachy: we don't know who the enemy is, we have no defined conditions of victory, and it can't be a war as such because wars are conflicts between states.

A follower of Murray Bookchin's political ideology, which according to him was "a theory of government or a system of government in which independent communes participate in a federation". A form of libertarian socialism, based on local assemblies of no more than 150 families per group who meet up regularly to discuss the group's concerns and what they need doing locally. Anything they're unable to do themselves, they send a pair of delegates up to an area assembly, where if other local assemblies buy into the idea, enough resources & labour may be found to get it done.
