In the play Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare Brutus shows himself to be a hypocrite. He shows that he is a hypocrite with Caesar and Antony in many ways. Mostly with Caesar he shows he is a hypocrite because he went against of what he thought was wrong.
             He shows that he is a hypocrite with Caesar because Brutus told Cassius he wasn't going to be part of the conspiracy and that he didn't want to kill Caesar because he was his friend. But Cassius persuaded and convinced Brutus that Caesar was a coward and everyone would love Brutus if he were ruler. Also, Brutus wanted to kill Caesar because he was afraid he would act in a "power-hungry" way. Caesar never acted that way so therefore Brutus is a hypocrite. Brutus joined the conspirators in agreement to kill Caesar.
             Brutus also shows that he is a hypocrite with Antony because if he wasn't a hypocrite than he would have the same reaction to both situations. He would either want to kill both of them or not kill either of them. He thought that Antony wasn't a threat to the conspirators. Brutus believed that Antony was only the arm of Brutus. That he would have no power if Caesar died.
             Therefore, Brutus was a hypocrite in the situations with Caesar and Antony. He said he wasn't going to kill Caesar but than his friend convinced him and he decided to kill him and join the conspiracy. Also, Antony never acted in a power-hungry way so it showed Brutus that he wasn't powerful. Brutus went against what he thought was wrong.
