well not only that but the space to think about systems of power and possible realities (like the COVID lull) is antithetical to capitalist aims. leisure is doled out just enough to prop up consumer spending. if you restrain your desires you can buy back your time (FIRE) but that affordance is reliant on the status quo (others consuming so that your investments do well).
