It's a conspiracy without the quotes alright, the early risers aren't a huge part of the population[1] yet somehow the rest of us need to conform to them in every way.

I can choose to believe that graph, or I can choose to believe it's getting something wrong and the majority of people want to get up relatively early. For whatever reason that may be. If the early risers were indeed such a minority, how exactly are they forcing the vast majority to conform?

Idk, how is the rich minority forcing the rest of humanity to slave away dusk till dawn to buy them superyachts and private islands?

By being the ones in position of authority of course. It doesn't take more than one or two examples for the rest of the world to copy something verbatim out of practical conformist reasons.
