China is like this. On a visit to that country, I witnessed the clothing and hairstyle propaganda. Someone I know had to wait a very long time to have their marriage approved by the government.
I have also been to European countries where, in my opinion, a significant number of workers were made to get out of bed unreasonably early in order to conform to a three-shift production schedule (taking into account their long commutes). These same places mandate that family vacations must not interfere with school attendance, so parents get first dibs on the narrow time slots when school is closed while others are therefore denied time off during those periods.
Rewards and punishments is a more honest way of saying "carrots and sticks" that people on the new, fake political left are so proud of talking about.
The woke are pushing this. Since they're mostly child free, it once again show their stupid short sightedness.
In China it's the government wanting strong adherence to social norms. In Europe it's the need for industrial competitiveness.
Authoritarians have infiltrated the left. Look at how fast they were able to co-opt the word "woke." There was a short time when it meant regular people were becoming aware--that they were being pitted against themselves. They had to turn that term into "wokeism" and make it divisive.
