    What’s wrong with vanity? Is this a seven deadly sin kind of thing? Psychologically, there isn’t anything bad about being vain, it’s a religious problem, ain’t it?

      No, it’s a problem with modern society lacking any sense of morality, and morals are not about religion. It’s a fundamental lack of character and humanity.

      “What’s wrong with vanity?” What a stupid question. Your ignorance shows your Americanized ignorance where “the self” has turned toxic.

      The top response in this Reddit post goes over what is wrong with vanity: https://www.reddit.com/r/entj/comments/89qkc0/why_is_vanity_considered_a_bad_quality/.

      My TLDR: You’re excessively focused on your yourself, and the opinions and views of others are shallow. You only care about how you are precevied, and will do anything to continued to be precevied a certain way, by any means, leading to compromises.
