In Christianity, there are seven deadly sins. The US is guilty of all of them.
Pride
When it comes to international politics, the US claims the moral high ground, blaming others for its own faults.
It sets obstacles in the way of potential competitors;
Even its own allies, it treats like servants.
Envy
As the sole superpower, the US cannot tolerate any other country making achievements. To hinder China’s high-tech progress, the US even discards its own free market economy banner,
bullying and smearing China.
Anger
With such efforts proving to be in vain, the US has become angry and hypes up the "China threat theory".
Sloth
Yet when the world and its own people faced a grave threat from the pandemic, it turned into a sloth,
in stark contrast to the speed with which it seizes any opportunity to point an accusing finger at China.
Greed
The US is so greedy it tries to profiteer from the misfortune of others. Instigating confrontation and conflicts to sell weapons.
That is why it continues to fuel the fighting in Ukraine,
and tramples on international rules.
It even harvests gains from the sufferings of its European allies.
Gluttony
The US has an insatiable appetite, that can never be satisfied.
For it, the EU is nothing but a chicken to be roasted.
Lust
The US elites’ lust for mastery violates human rights at home and abroad, something the original caretakers of the land know only too well.
Now they are in the habit of sending troops everywhere to "liberate" people by destroying their homes.
