    I don’t know if capitalism is to blame so much as a shift towards a more interdependent society. People blame the industrial revolution, which I think makes sense, but it’s not the spectre of capitalism in and of itself. Having more dedicated roles meant less chores at home for everyone (eventually) but more chores like “going shopping” which has to be done during the hours when things are open which means you inherently want to concentrate all of your active hours for most of the population into a small subset (our current 8-6 time frame). There’s still morning people and normal people, but that time is spent in general on concentrated large scale socialization (going to the bars or whatever) and individual hobbies (running for morning people, seemingly universally; games, tv, etc for normal people).

    Of course all this is a guess. Maybe the monopoly man really does hate people sleeping. Elon sure does.

    Let’s check with the expert

    @cm0002@lemmy.world did you mean that you literally fired off a vacation request as you were boarding the plane and it was denied, and you said fuckit. or was this a more general rage against the machine post indicating a general dislike of the concept that managers even have the ability to deny vacation requests. That is, a shitpost not intended to be taken literally.

    Inquiring minds want to know.
