When you shoplift from the supermarket by scanning items through the self-service till as an onion (the lowest price item).
In a shameful display of self destruction, depression and sickening greed (potentially malice), pitiful celebrity TV 'chef' Anthony 'The Abhorrent' Worrell Thompson was caught literally red handed onioning a bottle of red wine and some camembert. His family are dutifully shocked.
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.”
