Submit posts (from anywhere) where people unknowingly describe themselves.

Specifically, someone who, when attempting to mock or denigrate their political opposition, accidentally describes themselves. They aren't self aware enough to notice. Or, alternatively, someone who accurately describes the world while trying to parody it.

Can you ELI5? I have no idea who these people are, or what the context is, let alone how someone is being a self aware wolf?

Professional athlete with famously controversial views:

  1. says that his team needs to focus on their sport and avoid distractions in order to win
  2. advertises a media appearance where he accuses a talks how host of pedophilia without reason or evidence

Thus spectacularly failing to follow his own advice in the space of about 30s.
