The Covid Era and its Relationship With the Seven Deadly Sins

The Seven Deadly Sins:

Pride

Greed

Wrath

Envy

Lust

Gluttony

Sloth

It is my belief that the seven deadly sins play a huge role in this new Covid era. However, it could be the case that the seven deadly sins play a role in a Marxist society, a fascist society or indeed any society. Here is my case and I would be interested in your thoughts.

Pride: The public take pride in following the ‘good’ rules set out by a government and the mainstream media. They enjoy the congratulations they receive for their ‘good’ work and following the new rules.

Greed: The public choose to follow absurd rules so as to ensure they remain in employment, they may gain a doughnut or perhaps a spliff. Maybe if they follow orders, they may be able to go on holiday.

Wrath: The public become angry because they have followed rules and they are asked to follow even more rules to obtain their desires (greed). The goal posts have been moved by those who are rule making. Wrath may be directed at those who keep changing the rules, but more than likely, wrath will be directed at those who warned not to aquiesce. The reason wrath will be directed as those who alerted a warning is due to pride. Wrath will also come from those making the rules against those who refuse to follow them.

Envy: The public observes the positive attention directed at celebrities or scripted pawns in the theatre. They now desire similar positive attention through social media or any alternative route so as to feed into their pride and greed. They will act in ways they usually would not, like taking injections out of envious desires.

Lust: Similar to envy, the public will participate in acts they would not normally participate in due to lusting after attention which they are envious of. There is also the element that their lust is greed focused so as to obtain their desires such as holidays or doughnuts.

Gluttony: Gluttony means to gulp down or swallow. I think you can see where I am going with this. The masses, without thought or consideration have ‘gulped down and swallowed’ all of the lies and deceit thrown at them via various methods such as social media, TV, radio and newspapers.

Sloth: Despite information being available to the masses to help them come to an informed decision and conclusion, it is easier and more convenient to turn on the radio, TV or open the newspaper or social media to gain your ‘knowledge’. This is because all the information you need to know about various subjects are all handily provided in one single place, be that the TV, newspaper, radio or social media. Information is deliberately placed together at your convenience. That is, information THEY want you to know. Sloth could also apply to an unwillingness to learn, investigate and research. This unwillingness might be because it has been stated by the powers that be that you will have greater and easier access to your desires if you just do as they say. If you just follow their rules.

Of course, we can apply the seven deadly sins to probably any society of the past too. For example the fascist Nazi regime or the fascist Marxist regime. When we look at the Milgrim experiment which was done after the events of the Nazi holocaust, we see how easily people fall into the trap of the seven deadly sins.

In brief the experiment observed obedience to ‘authority’ or perceived authority figures. The experiment involved a willingness in men between the ages of 20 to 50 to obey an authority figure, in this case a scientist, who instructed them to perform acts which would normally conflict with their moral conscience. The men were from various occupation and education levels so as to observe a diverse range of men within society.

Participants had understood they were participating in an unrelated experiment whereby they were requested by a scientist to administer electric shocks to a ‘learner’. The understanding that the shocks would increase as the learner made mistakes to a fatal level electric shock if the shocks requested to be administered had been real. Luckily the shocks were fake and the ‘learner’ was playing a role within the experiment. Approximately 65% of participants followed instruction to induce death.

I would argue, that larger societies as a whole are more inclined to fall down the path of the seven deadly sins. This is because governments will need to manipulate behaviours of mass populations to conform to their desires. To do this a government would have to have the masses crave such desires (or sins) so as they are more likely to be easily ruled through manipulation of the mind.

The UK government through the Covid era has used a team of psychologists to pull the population into line. Although I had understood the true meaning of the word government, I hadn't fully recognised the extent of the use of psychological manipulation. If you didn’t know, government means control of the mind, or mind control. Govern comes from the Latin verb Guverno, Guvernare meaning to control or rule. Ment comes from the Latin noun Mens, Mentis meaning ‘Mind’.

Just study the seven deadly sins closer. They are all psychological. Would you agree? It has been known for millennia that man can be manipulated through the use of psychology. Is this why the powers that be create societies, which is simply an illusion? It forces peer pressure through psychological means and more to the point – it brings with it the seven deadly sins.
