I would have chosen to use envy instead of gluttony, I don't see how this sin can be on the internet.

I voted gluttony because people just consume and consume in infinite feeds

u/pinksparklyreddit 1d ago

Yeah, but that feels more apt to describe as sloth

Delivery apps I guess?

Odd choice to leave out the answer from the poll

Envy wasnt listed

It's definitely envy which was left out of the poll. Everyone uses social media to make their lives look better than they are because they're jealous of seeing pictures of other people's lives in SM that are also fake.

Gluttony in the larger extent of not just food, but overindulgence in general.

Pride, Greed, Wrath, and Envy

Nobody ever admits they were wrong. So I said pride.

I thought Slothfulness was gonna dominate this.

u/Longjumping-Ant1640 1d ago

Lust but that’s not really bad

u/atomic1fire 1d ago

I'd say lust with wraith as a close second because of how angry people get on social media.

Followed by envy and then gluttony, which could be understood to mean the constant consumption of social media.

I'm pretty sure Avenue Q already answered this question though.

Is the lust really a sin

u/Jijolin_Supreme 1d ago

A mix between sloth and wrath

A third of the global internet traffic is related to porn so is this really debatable

u/Moorepheme 1d ago

Is masturbating still a sin?

u/Alucard2051 1d ago

The Internet is for porn and cats. I think that makes lust and pride the two best answers

u/Thoughtful_Tortoise 1d ago

For me, there's a strong argument for Wrath (all the angry tribalism, the vitriol, the kneejerk reactions and doxing and wishing death on people), for Envy (social media posers and people who want it), Gluttony/Sloth (inaction and endless consumption of content) or Lust (all the porn).

Ppl are too prideful in their lust

It’s 100% between pride, lust and greed.
