I think sleep deprivation is regarded as a feature by those in power rather than a bug. You drill children and teenagers to get up early, so that later they are obedient, tired work horses who won't get any ideas. Then the upper classes sagely quote that general who said that only "smart" and lazy people are leaders of the highest order.

You forget they practice the same bullshit, in so many levels. So they shouldn't be getting any ideas by your logic. So to have this idea would be a contradiction.

> I think sleep deprivation is regarded as a feature Yup. Needing sleep is considered a luxury. If you complain about not having enough, you're "weak". If you can't sleep because of your neighbors, it's considered a mild inconvenience. Really, we need sleep like we need food, water or air.
