Can someone help me understand why I hate these productivity nut jobs so much?

I know it's cringe to say on chan but I'm fairly productive, rich and successful so there's no envy. I just hate them still..
Feels like a circlejerk watching these people online lay out every second of their day like it's somehow important and spreading that idea to others.

It's like watching an empty man with no time for reflection - more than their 10 scheduled meditation session. Fill their life with distractions to grant themselves the illusion that they're somehow in control.

>The April 15, 1933 issue of Newsweek, one of the first in the magazine’s history, contains a remarkable cover headline: Bill cutting work week to 30 hours startles the nation. Indeed only nine days earlier, on April 6th, the Black-Connery Bill had passed in the United States Senate by a wide margin. The bill fixed the official American work week at five days and 30 hours, with severe penalties for overtime work.

>we could have had a 30 hour work week since 1933
shouldn't the government pay us not to be school shooters at this point?
