    Stupid sounding thread, but I saw this elsewhere and felt interesting.

    In Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Sloth, Wrath, Envy, Pride., which one do you think your fellows suffer the most of?

    As to colonial Italians, we are greedy as fuck. There's an old saying here that the way you can make an Italian fit an elephant inside of a VW Beetle is to tell him it's for free. For Brazilians in general, we're envious as fuck, very few peoples in the world care so much about "status" than us, here you should never tell anyone that you're doing well.

    It is not in those seven sins, but I think the actual problem with USA is these extremist double morals its people have. The country where most ridiculous fad diets come from is the same one of 2-liter Big Gulp sodas and Donut Burgers, the country that produces the most pornography in the world is the same one that teaches abstinence-only sex education in some states. Imo, as successful and prosperous as you are, it feels that the modern american mindset leads people to moral sickness, that's why stereotypes like the "Karen" exist, and maybe only exist there.

    I'm very far from thinking that LatAm is a land of free thinkers and totally moral or amoral people, but I just feel the US has this sort of stuff amplified.

    Oh, people used to say that Argentinians were too proud, but I just feel they are a normal, patriotic country that loves itself and remembers itself of its greatness.

    The actual problem imo is sloth. I'm all for a work-life balance, but if I did the stuff employees and small business owners here do if I were in Brazil, I would get a tremendous sermon from my employer or customer. The hours are weird, unknown people are often treated badly, and even in the case of pure native interaction, I don't see half of the will and attention of Brazilians when it comes to services. Perhaps consequences of a society with a lot of economical uncertainties, I wouldn't say a low-trust society because when it comes to safety Argentina is probably secon or third in the continent.

    Envy."A feeling of resentful longing aroused by someone else's possessions, qualities or luck".Present mainly among the "middle class" of the brasilian southeast.Lust is also present in the form of coomers and drinking culture.
    In the south is more about sloth and pride, not much envy there.The big cities in RS find thenselves in such a precárious condition i imagine contemptment and sloth are tô blame.

    Funny that I always thought of the South as the 2nd hardest working region in the country, only Sao Paulo 1st. Yeah I think we pass an image of arrogance, especially Rio Grande do Sul. Colonos are workaholics, I can assure you of that, but idk the demographics of PoA and Curitiba so well. My experience with Curitiba was shit, and the day I visit Porto Alegre it will probably be just as bad .

    With the influx of neo western values of late (beginning from 90s economic changes that made it easier for western investments) , India has gotten much lustified in comparision to older self but still is much less than West .

    I'd say its pride* & wrath* on lines of religion , caste , ethnicity in the order usually and also aggressive nationalism of late from 2014

    * regularly pumped in by ulterior interests like polticians craving to get voted to power , foreign adversaries etc.

    For Sweden I would probably say pride (thinking that other European countries as more backwards and racist. And thinking that they know what's best for eastern and southern Europe, when they themselves don't want to live in the multi-culturalism that they have created in their own country.)

    As for BiH I can't really talk for the entire people, there is a lot of diversity.
    But I have encountered gluttony.
