Ie: fat acceptance and deplatforming
I bet we can find all 7 if we look hard enough
Pride: gay pride, non-white race pride etc. The belief that you know best for everyone.
Greed: Gibs. The need to control all institutions and hold all levers of power.
Lust: gay pride again, and the complete unleashing of sexual deviancy generally.
Envy: Communism and the need to tear down 'privilege' in the name of equality.
Gluttony: rampant obesity and fat acceptance, also the proliferation of sensual entertainment generally.
Wrath: the active destruction of non-conforming views and institutions. Antifa.
Sloth: the extension of childhood well into the twenties. Passive consumption of entertainment. Mass underemployment and the welfare state.
Yep, think we caught them all.
This is making me think that one of the differences between the Left and the Right is that the Right sees these as sins to be resisted and overcome and the Left sees them as needs to be indulged and provided for.
I've no idea why you are trying to control people with your patriarchal white supremacy man.
I can't help it, my Whiteness is the whole of my identity.
It's sooooo problematic.
I wouldn't create a list like that, but it was mostly fine. The one that i don't see really fitting is what you had for greed. As i don't know if people who "believe they know whats best" are really greedy.
The desire for power is part of greed IMO.
It was just a 5-minute thought exercise.
I mean yes, some people do just want to be in power and i would count that as greed, but i think the rest just think they know whats best for everyone else.
Then that would be Pride.
And I agree.
Gibs is greed
The idea that you're entitled to the labour of others for existing
Agreed. List edited to incorporate both points.
This whole thing really highlights the differences between "Live and let live" and "Live and utterly annihilate anyone I don't like" worldviews
Talk later fellows, I have roofing to do...
Don't fall in.
Haha thanks. No holes in it, just need to do some patching and get a fresh coat of sealant up before the monsoons hit.

@I Know a Fat Guy Ana did kind of admit that the socialist part of Venezuela is what caused Venezuela to fail.
I think it’s funny how they kept appealing to Scandinavia.

I can’t see the text of the Babylon bee article
🤔
I don't think there is any text for that one. It's just the headline+photo
I assumed that was the joke, yes
Oh. I thought there was more to it
Yeah I think I remember him berating the religious right for their view of the border during the debate.
Oh that’s rich.
Why isn’t the Mexican government morally culpable?
I want a leftist to answer that for me.
