Where are all the Other Flags?

Where are all the other flags asks Tim Pool? Well, they are all around us, thrown into our faces every day in various ways.

"It is because they have nothing else. They live in a world of darkness, without hope, with nothing but their seven great friends to sustain them: pride, which they call self-esteem; envy, which they call social justice; wrath, which they call activism and protest; sloth, which they call enlightenment; gluttony, which they call health food and legalization of recreational drugs; greed, which they call fairness in taxation; lust, which they call sexual liberation."

John C Wright, Transhuman and Subhuman

There is no doubt the sin of pride is stoked up by the god of this world, but the seven deadly sins are always close in following each other. Where there is pride, you will find all the others, and they will be prominent and reframed to be acceptable in one way or another. Evil has no new tricks, because the old ones still work.
