peletica

A term describing a hollow or hypocritical moral code, usually appearing in the phrase 'etica peletica'. It refers to the moral disconnect of people who act righteous in public but harbor secret hate, suggesting their values are as nonsensical as the word itself (the term comes from a popular Colombian tongue-twister about a hen).

People who go to church, feel like holy crusaders, and then spend their commute cursing or hating anyone who isn't a religious fanatic, then get home and feel nothing but envy and rage toward their neighbors, are suffering from a type of schizophrenia. That is 'ETHICS PELETICA'.
