There were some vague studies that came out years ago that claimed going to bed super early and waking up super early led to better health. What it really does is maximizes the time you have to work, or grind as the manosphere touts it. While leaving less time for leisure activities and spending time with your family.

An 8-4 sleep schedule means the only thing you have time to do is, workout, so you’re a better worker and then go to work. Then most 4am ppl brag about working 12 hours a day and boom. One extra cog in the machine.

The fundamental problem with this kind of message is that it’s wholly unrealistic to do all of these things. However, it’s packaged as if that is the point.

With historic inflation, homelessness, and corruption going on, blind positivity is exactly what led us here. This highly structured list is a stark reminder of “grin and bear it” philosophy.

It’s a product of Capitalism. Make people into more efficient workers by telling them structure and “just do it” are virtuous.
