Secular monasticism is a great idea. Probably even better than any "leftist hustle culture" that grinds for the revolution.
There's something to be said for a mind-over-matter approach, cultivating mental fortitude. But I feel that centering it on the sexual inclination is defeating the point of it. Instead of the focus being on the self that is broadly strengthened, it is on sexuality as a demon that must be tamed.
The inversion of NoFap just reifies all the same assumptions.
