White affluent middle class "trendy" type with perfectly pruned dreadlocks.
Usually seen in and around gentrified urban districts. Often they are very pretentious, are preoccupied with image and wealth (wearing of designer clothes is part of their unform along with the dreads) and have an over inflated opinion of themselves. Unlikely, they will follow rastafari but likely to listen to reggae as well as other urban sounds and smoke weed because it looks cool.
Hey look at di bacondread over there. Obviously a middle class white kid who knows the price of everything but the value of nothing.
The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
