just a hypocrite that's all.

It only says that in clear terms if you don't understand the terms. There are two things that explain this much more clearly:
1) Joseph appears to be much older than Mary, and likely brought children into the marriage and
2) The word used for brother can also mean cousin.
So the siblings to which the bible refers are probably a combination of cousins and half-siblings from Joseph's first wife.
