I think this take is a little bit capitalist realism of you comrade.
Capitalist realism? huh? I'm talking about hours of sunlight here. not getting enough sunlight is not "natural" (I realize that term is very loaded, I'm going by their use of it). also I should note that during socialist construction in the USSR, the working day was very regimented, it takes a lot of work to build.
Yeah natural isnt a good word for it. But at the end of the day sleep disorders and ND people exist and have sleep schedules that arent fixed to what capitalist society deems a "natural sleep cycle".
The fact that lots of unemployed people trend towards staying up late and getting up late doesnt seem immaterial to me.
I say "capitalist realism" because it seems like youve internalized the idea of a capitalist work schedule being normal and healthy.
I think we are under different material conditions now that would allow for things like flexitime, 4 day work week and shorter work days, and otherwise adapting to different peoples sleep.
They're talking about exposure to the sun, that's nothing to do with capitalist work schedules.
